Dub Dá Thúath mac Steléne is not to be identified with the Dub Dá Thúath bishop of Rath Áeda mentioned in the annals (so K. Meyer, The vision of Mac Conglinne, 1892 [Best¹, p. 117], and A primer of Irish metrics, 1909 [Best¹, p. 54]), but rather with the Mac Teléne in The Trial of Mac Teléne found in YBL (see J. G. O’Keeffe, in Ériu 5 (1911), pp. 18-44 [Best¹, p. 120]).
