Etruria:Pisae?
Umbria:
Picenum:
Latium:Ok i know that-Roma.
Samnium:
Campania:Capua?
Lucania:
Apulia:

I hope i am not forgeting any.
And by the way what is the name of that province that includes the Fucinus lake?To be more specific this particular province borders Umbria,Picenum to the north, the adriatic to the east, Etruria to the west and Latium and Samnium to the south.

Roman Provinces (North to South)
I know that those cities were the most important in those regions but I have to confess that in most of the cases I guessed which could be the respective capital. Hope it helped though!
Gallia Transpadana - Mediolan(i)um
Venetia - Aquileia
Liguria - Genua
Aemilia (Gallia Cispadana) - Bononia
Etruria (Tuscia) - Florentium, Volsinii, Pisae (could be)
Picenum - Ancona
Umbria - Spoletium (I guess)
Sabini/Aequi - Corfinium (I guess)
Samnium - Beneventum (Maleventum)
Latium - Roma (though Rome itself had an adminitration on its own - Praetor urbi)
Campania - Cumae/Kyme
Apulia - Brundisium
Lucania - Paestum/Posidonia
Bruttii - Rhegium or Thurii/Colonia Copia
Most of these cities I guessed because i´t is really difficult to tell from the maps I have at home. I need to go to my university though it is my summer holidays and I will have a look at the Institute of Ancient History if I could get additional information. I have a lot of maps here at home but I lack a scanner to provide you with them. I will see what I can do anyway.
Attached you find a map of republican Italy that maybe prove useful too.
