(Ἴμβραμος), a surname of Hermes (Eustath. ad Dionys. Per. 524; Steph. Byz. s. v. Ἰμβρος), in which Welcker (Trilogie, p. 217) recognises a name of the Pelasgian Hermes, who went from Attica to Lemnos, Imbros and Samothrace, and is said to have been identical with Himerus. He is seen on a coin of Imbros, with a patera and a knotty staff.
