Diodorus' account

"And Itonus, the son of Boeotus, begat four sons, Hippalcimus, Electryon, Archilycus, and Alegenor. Of these sons Hippalcimus begat Peneleos, Electryon begat Leïtus, Alegenor begat Clonius, and Archilycus begat Prothoënor and Arcesilaüs, who were the leaders of all the Boeotians in the expedition against Troy."[1]

Homer's account

".... for the wife also of Promakhos son of Alegenor will never be gladdened by the coming of her dear husband..."[2]
