Iphis (Ancient Greek: Ἶφις), son of Alector in the Anaxagorid third of Argos, was a king who advised Polynices to win Amphiaraus for the Seven against Thebes by bribing Eriphyle with the necklace of Harmonia. Pausanias says he left the throne to Sthenelus son of Capaneus. Distinct from feminine Iphides (Cretan Iphis, Patroclus' captive, Thespiad) and from other masculine Iphides.

I.King in the Anaxagorid third
After the Argive kingdom was divided among Anaxagoras, Melampus, and Bias, the native Anaxagorid line continued through Alector to Iphis. Apollodorus has Polynices seek his advice on compelling Amphiaraus; Iphis tells him only Eriphyle can force the seer, and that the necklace of Harmonia will buy her consent.
He is father of Eteoclus, of Evadne (wife of Capaneus), and in some lists of Laodice (mother of Capaneus). Having outlived his children, Pausanias says, he bequeathed his share of Argos to his grandson Sthenelus, son of Capaneus — a step toward reunifying the three royal thirds.
II.Homonym care
The atlas id iphis-anaxagoras is the Argive king alone. Wikipedia's Iphis (mythology) also catalogues the Cretan girl transformed by Isis, Patroclus' Scyrian captive, a Thespiad mother by Heracles, Ovid's Cypriot shepherd, an Argonaut brother of Eurystheus, and a Theban defender — none of which is this node.
