Callicrates

2. A Greek orator who seems to have lived about the time of Demosthenes, and to whom the tables of Pergamus ascribed the oration κατὰ Δημοσθένους παρανόμων, which was usually considered the work of Deinarchus. (Dionys. Deinarch. 11.) But no work of Callicrates was known even as early as the time of Dionysius of Halicarnassus.
