From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Hermas
     Mercury, a Roman Christian to whom Paul sends greetings (Rom.
     16: 14). Some suppose him to have been the author of the
     celebrated religious romance called The Shepherd, but it is very
     probable that that work is the production of a later generation.
