Centuriones seem to be called Centenarii, or Ordinarii
The Optio becomes the Biarchus
Most units seem to have a Tribunus as commander.
Possibly the "old legions" (originating in the Principate) may simply have come under the direct command of the local Dux, with their smaller sub-units commanded by tribunes. There doesn't seem to be very much information on the command structure of the 'old fashioned' units in the literature.
