Which Greek hero led the contingent from Rhodes in the Iliad?

Tlepolemus led the Greek contingent from Rhodes in the Iliad. Homer names him in the Catalogue of Ships as the commander of nine ships carrying Rhodian warriors to Troy.

Tlepolemus was the son of Heracles and Astyocheia. After reaching adulthood, he killed his father’s aging uncle Licymnius, a descendant of Ares, and fled to avoid retaliation from Heracles’ other sons and grandsons. He eventually settled on Rhodes, where the population was organized around three cities: Lindos, Ialysus, and Cameirus.

His Rhodian forces later meet the Lycian troops of Sarpedon in battle. Tlepolemus boasts of his descent from Heracles, while Sarpedon counters that his own lineage comes from Zeus. Sarpedon mortally wounds Tlepolemus, although Tlepolemus also strikes Sarpedon before dying.

Nestor led the Pylian contingent, not the Rhodians. Glaucus and Sarpedon were leaders of the Lycians, making them plausible but incorrect alternatives. The Rhodian commander is specifically Tlepolemus.
