Laevius (died c. 80 BC?) was a Latin poet, of whom practically nothing is known.
The earliest reference to him is perhaps in Suetonius (De grammaticis, 3), though it is not certain that the Laevius Milissus or Melissus there referred to is the same person. Definite references do not occur before the 2nd century (Fronto, Ep. ad ~k~. Caes. i. 3; Aulus Gellius, Noctes Atticae ii. 24, Xii. 10, XjX. 9 Apuleius, De magia, 30; Porphyrion, Ad Horat. carm. iii. 1, 2).
