Herewith a link to an earlier (2010) 'Saints of the day' for 21. August (including St. Cyriaca of Rome; St. Euprepius; St. Agathonicus, Zoticus, and companions; St. Privatus of Mende; Sts. Luxurius, Cisellus, and Camerinus; St. Sidonius Apollinaris):

And here's a link to a 'Feasts and saints of the day' post from 2011 on St. Paternus of Fondi:

Further to Agathonicus, Zoticus, and companions:
In that earlier post's notice of these saints, the link to the view of Agathonicus as depicted in the earlier fourteenth-century frescoes (betw. 1335 and 1350) in the nave of the church of the Holy Ascension in the Visoki Dečani monastery near Peć no longer functions. Use this instead (Agathonicus at left; at right, the Good Thief):

Further to Privatus of Mende:
Privat as depicted in the fifteenth-century Croÿ Hours in the fonds ancien of the Bibliothèque de l’Assemblée nationale in Paris (Livre d'Heures, dit de Croÿ, fol. 26r):

In that earlier post's notice of this saint, the first of the seven links to views of the église Saint-Privat in Saint-Privat-d'Allier (Haute-Loire) no longer functions. Use this instead:

Further to Luxurius:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, the lemma should read: Luxurius, Cisellus, and Camerinus (d. ca. 304, supposedly).
In the same notice, add this just before the final paragraph:
In 1274 L.'s monastery at Pisa was assigned to the Umiliati. In the early 1420s, with Pisa now under Florentine control, a skull believed to be L.'s was brought from this monastery to the Umiliati's church of Ognisanti in Florence. Sometime between 1422 and 1427 Donatello made for this relic a gilt bronze reliquary bust now in Pisa's Museo Nazionale di San Matteo. Some views of that object:

Further to Paternus of Fondi:
Many of the links in last year's notice of this saint no longer function. Herewith a link to another illustrated, Italian-language page on the monastery of San Magno at Fondi:
