Leipephilene

The daughter of Iolaus and Megara, and the mother of Hippotes and Thero by Phylas, according to the epic poem Μεγάλαι Ἠοῖαι (Megalai Ēoiai):

"Phylas wedded a daughter of famous Iolaus,

Leipephilene, like in form to the Olympian goddesses;

She bore him in the halls a son Hippotes,

And lovely Thero, like to the moonbeams.

Thero, falling into the embrace of Apollo,

Bore mighty Chaeron, tamer of horses."
