Marcus Fulvius Flaccus was a consul in 264 BC. In the tradition of Livy his praenomen is "Quintus".[1]
In his consulship Fulvius Flaccus brought the reduction of Volsinii (Etruscan: Velzna) to an end in 264 BC and celebrated a triumph.[2] It was the last Etruscan city to be taken by the Romans.
He was considered to be the founder of the Flaccus branch of the gens Fulvius.
