In the surviving, brief attestations cited in modern reference works, Chlorus is presented as a member of a mythic genealogy: he is named as the son of Pelasgus and the father of Haemon, who in turn is father of Thessalus. These links are presented to explain regional eponyms — Haemonia and Thessaly — rather than as a narrative tale of deeds. The sources also note a variant tradition in which Haemon is called the son of Pelasgus instead of of Chlorus, indicating fluidity among genealogical accounts preserved in geographical and ethnographic compilations (as recorded in modern summaries of Stephanus of Byzantium and Strabo).
Not attested. The available sources record Chlorus only as a personal/genealogical name and provide no physical description or iconography.
None attested. Chlorus is not described as possessing supernatural powers or agency in the supplied materials; he functions as an ancestral eponym in etiological genealogies.
