The son of Polynikes (Polynices) and Argeia; he was one of the Epigoni.
His father had been killed in a failed attempt to capture the city of Thebes but Thersandros and six other captains led a successful assault on the city ten years later; Thersandros was the grandson of king Oedipus.
When the Greeks sailed from the island of Aulis to capture Troy, the fleet became lost and they attacked the city of Teuthrania instead; Thersandros was killed in the assault by a man named Telephus.
