Ronald F. Malan in "The Ancestry of Dhuoda, Duchess of Septimania" in the Spring 1997 issue (vol. 11, no. 1) of The Genealogi:

Lupus the Gascon, duke of Gascony, of unknown parentage but considered hereditary master of Gascony, married about 770 a Galician princess. He was imprisoned in 778 by Charlemge for his role in the famous first ambush at Roncesvalles and probably died soon afterwards.

• Web Reference: Lupo II of Gascony from Wikipedia.
Lupo's relationship to the previous dukes of Aquitaine-Vasconia and his successors is unclear. If he is to be regarded as related to subsequent Gascon dukes, which seems reasonable on the basis of patronymics, a genealogy can easily be constructed. [Collins, Roger. The Basques, p.130] He was the father of Sancho, Seguin, Centule, and García (Garsand). All of his sons ruled Gascony at one time or another except García, who died in battle with Berengar of Toulouse in 819. [Collins, p 129] He may have had another son named Adalric, who was active in the reign of Chorso of Toulouse.


Loup married.
