Thelxion of Argos

In Greek mythology, Thelxion (Ancient Greek: Θελξίων) was the Argive companion of Telchin. Along with his companion, he planned a conspiracy against Apis, the son of Phoroneus, and finally the two killed him. They were in turn slain by Argus Panoptes.[1]

Note

Apollodorus, 2.1.1 'He also avenged the murder of Apis by putting the guilty (pl.) to death.'
