Rav Yitzchak bar Shmuel, of the fourth Babylonian generation, is named five times, in Berachot, Menachot and Gittin, and in three of those places it is Rabbah bar bar Chana reporting a teaching in his name rather than he himself speaking.

He is cited in Rav's circle. The roster marks the entry for review, and era, generation and these citations are what can be said with confidence.

Rarely cited.
