Why this is in the register
HOLLIS Primo search 'Martyrdom of Babylas' returns seven records, none of them the passio in English: John Chrysostom's 'Discourse on Blessed Babylas and against the Greeks' (an English chapter), William Cave's 1677/1716 martyrology Apostolici (a general compilation), and modern articles on the cult (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Martyrdom%20of%20Babylas&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 The ANF/NPNF tables on ccel.org contain Babylas only as the subject of Chrysostom's homily 'On the Holy Martyr S. Babylas' (NPNF series 1, vol. 9) and as a narrative episode in Socrates/Sozomen/Theodoret (the transfer of his relics and the Daphne oracle) — the Greek passio itself is not among them (https://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf109.toc.html, https://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf202.toc.html).
The martyrdom of the bishop of Antioch who barred Decius from the church and whose relics silenced the Daphne oracle — a case where the homiletic and historiographic treatments are translated but the hagiographic passio is not. Greek text is carried in the Bollandist/Acta Sanctorum tradition; no modern critical edition-translation and no English rendering located.

Scanned witnesses
Scan search: open scan — 1 candidate(s). This is the Latin acta (the dossier in AASS is Latin; no Greek characters appear in the sampled text). The Greek passio itself was not located. Checks made: IA title:(apollinarium) = 0, title:(demetrii) = 61 irrelevant items (Demetrius of Phaleron, Homer); LOC Sinai collection q=Babylas = 0 items; BnF SRU 'Babylas' = modern literature only; DigiVatLib search is HTTP 403 from this host, so no manuscript could be identified. Scan is usable as a witness of the Latin tradition; a Greek witness still needs the BHG/Bollandist manuscript apparatus.
