3. A son of Telephus and Astyoche, was king of Moesia or Cilicia. Eurypylus was induced by the presents which Priam sent to his mother or wife, to assist the Trojans against the Greeks. Eurypylus killed Machaon, but was himself slain by Neoptolemus. (Hyg. Fab. 112; Strab. xiii. p.584; Paus. 3.26. 7; Dict. Cret. 4.14; Eustath. ad Hom. p. 1697.) There are three other mythical personages of this name. (Apollod. 2.7.8, 1.7.10, 8.3.)
