Liutprand of Benevento

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liutprand_of_Benevento

Liutprand (died after 759) was the duke of Benevento from the death of his father Gisulf II in 749 until his own deposition. He reigned under the regency of his mother, Scauniperga, who supported King Aistulf, until 756.

After he attained his majority, he commended his duchy to Pepin the Short, King of the Franks, probably at the coaxing of Pope Stephen II, and rebelled against King Desiderius, being deposed in 758 to be replaced by Arechis II. The Roman Emperor Constantine V offered to capture the fleeing Liutprand if Desiderius would attack the papacy until a Roman force from Sicily could join him. Desiderius did not attack and Liutprand was not captured.

Arechis was the son of Duke Liutprand, whom he succeeded in 758.[2]

Arechis II of Benevento seems the assigned successor, not a documented son.
Wiki ITA, however, does not exclude kinship.
Wiki ENG on the other hand, declares him to be his son, citing a page of studies.

Duke Gisulf II & his wife had one child:

a) LUITPRAND (-after 758). He succeeded his father as LUITPRAND Duke of Benevento. The Chronicon Vulturnense records that "Domna Scaniperga et Domnus…Liuprand summi Ducibus gentis Langobardorum" donated serfs to Volturno monastery by charter dated Nov 747[85]. He revolted against Desiderius King of the Lombards, who deposed him in 758, replacing him as duke by Arechis.
