Homer, Iliad2.828–834; Apollodorus, E.3.35. According to Leaf, p. 78, the name Adrastus here "is in all probability abstracted from that of his domain; it is of course familiar in early legend, and may have further suggested the association with Amphios, a possible reminiscence of Amphiaraos."
Leaf, p. 78 (saying that the Adrastus killed by Agamemnon is "evidently the son of Merops"), and Parada, s.v. Adrastus 3 treat them as the same, while Munn, p. 333, treats them as distinct. If these are the same Adrastus, then theIliad, apparently contradicting itself, has both Agamemnon (6.37–71) and Diomedes (11.328–334), at different times, as having killed him.
Hyginus, Fabulae33. Possibly the same as the Adrastus king of Argos, Grimal, s.v. Adrastus, has Hippodamia being that Adrastus' daughter, however according Diodorus, 4.70.3, Hippodamia was the daughter of Butes (the only father of Hippodamia noted by Parada, s.v. Hippodamia 4), while according to Ovid, Heroides17.247–248, her father was one "Atrax".
