A son of Titias (or Tityus), a Mariandyne and a young man of great beauty. One day, when he had gone to draw water for the reapers from a deep spring, he was abducted by the Nymphs (see Hylas). He is also said to have been killed while he was hunting and his death was commemorated every year, at the time of the harvest, by laments to the sound of the flute.
