In Greek mythology, the name Euryte /ˈjʊərɪtiː/ (Ancient Greek: Εὐρύτη means "width") may refer to following women:
- Euryte, the nymph mother of Halirrhothius by Poseidon.[1] She may be the same with Bathycleia, another name for the mother of Halirrhothius.[2]
- Euryte, daughter of Hippodamas and granddaughter of Achelous. By King Porthaon of Calydon, she was the mother of Oeneus, Agrius, Leucopeus, Melas, Alcathous and Sterope.[3]
