And that's not all! 
At Amida under the command of Aelianus comes rei militaris (killed after the fall of the city)were too:
Tricesimani,Decimani, Fortenses, Superuentores and Praeuentores,
several uexillationes palatinae et comitatenses of Comites sagittarii. And also the Equites sagittarii indigenae arabanenses, after Amida, garrisoned at Mefana-Cartha.
The Legio Duodecima Fulminata (the old Legio XII Fulminata Galliena), was stationed at Miletene (modern Malatia in Turkey) after the time of Septimius Severus, and where it was still stationed according to the Notitia. So it could be with Iulianus too.
The Legio I Pontica was based at that time in Trebizond (modern Trabzon in Turkey) on the Black Sea, so, likely, it would also be with Iulianus in Persia.
As well maybe there were some Laeti units too.
Tertiaci cavalry unit was punished and disbanded during the Persian campaign by Iulianus for cowardice. Ammianus XXV 1,7
And then there were some units of Cataphractarii too

Yes it is.
A note more:
The Mattiarii, Lancearii, Victores - Zosimus III-22 were awarded by the Corona obsidionalis for the Maiozamalcha tunnelling operation.
Ammianus XXIV,3, 10-27
Zosimus III 19,22
Libanius cit. 232-243
Klotz cit.489 ss
Seek, RE at "Sapor", 2347, 9-42
So if anyone wants to re-enact them has to put the crown on the standards...
Valete,
