Oceanid daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, named among the eldest daughters in Hesiod's closing catalogue beside Telesto, Tyche, and Styx — not to be confused with Eudora the Nereid daughter of Doris, nor with Eudora among the Hyades.1
Hesiod names Eudora in the elder company of Oceanids who conclude his register: after Telesto saffron-clad, Chryseis, Asia, and Calypso come Eudora and Tyche, then Amphirho, Ocyrrhoe, and Styx chiefest of all. These are the eldest daughters that sprang from Ocean and Tethys — Eudora's only attestation in the Theogony is this list-line.2
The name Eudora — 'good gift' — appears elsewhere under other genealogies. Hesiod's Nereid catalogue gives a different Eudora as daughter of Doris and Nereus among the fifty sea-nymphs; Hyginus later names yet another Eudora among the Hyades nursed to the stars. The atlas keeps this entry as the Oceanid of Tethys alone.3
