1. A daughter of the Theban Amphion and Niobe. According to an Argive tradition, her
original name was Meliboea, and she and her brother Amyclas were the only children of Niobe
that were not killed by Apollo and Artemis. But the terror of Chloris at the death of her
brothers and sisters was so great, that she turned perfectly white, and was therefore called
Chloris. She and her brother built the temple of Leto at Argos, which contained a statue of
Chloris also. (
