In late poetical Greek mythologyichthyocentaurs (or ikhthyokentauroi) were a pair of centaurine sea-gods with the upper body of a male human, the lower front of a horse, and the tail of a fish. Also, they wore lobster-claw horns. They were half-brothers of the wise centaur Chiron and the sons of the TitanCronus and Nymph Philyra.
