Plexippus information


In Greek mythology, Plexippus or Plexippos (Ancient Greek: Πλήξιππος means "striking") is a name that refers to:

  • Plexippus, a Pleuronian prince as the son of King Thestius of Pleuron and Eurythemis, daughter of Cleoboea. He was the brother of Althaea, Leda, Hypermnestra, Evippus, Eurypylus and Iphiclus.[1] Together with his other brother Toxeus, Plexippus participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. He was angry that the prize of the boar's hide had been given to a woman (Atalanta) by his nephew Meleager, who then killed him in the ensuing argument.[2]
  • Plexippus, a Thracian prince as son of Phineus and Cleopatra, brother of Pandion. He and his brother were blinded by Phineus at the instigation of their stepmother Idaea.[3]
  • Plexippus, an Egyptian prince as one of the sons of Aegyptus. He married (and was killed by) Amphicomone, daughter of Danaus.[4]
  • Plexippus, an Arcadian prince as the son of the King Choricus, brother of Enetus and Palaestra.[5]

Plexippus (spider) is also a genus of jumping spiders.
