Butes, an Argonaut, son of Teleon and Zeuxippe (daughter of Eridanus).

When the Argonauts were sailing past the Sirens, he was the only one who was unable resist the charm of their singing, swimming off to them. But Aphrodite saved him by transferring him to Lilybaeum in Sicily, where he became her lover.

Later becoming a famous bee keeper and a native Sicilian king, he was the father of Eryx by Aphrodite, and also of Polycaon.
