In Greek mythology, Teledice (Ancient Greek: Τηλεδικη, romanized: Tēledikē, lit. 'far-justice') is the nymph wife of the first mortal king Phoroneus of Peloponesse, and, according to Pseudo-Apollodorus, the mother of Apis and Niobe.1 Other sources named the consort(s) of Phoroneus as either Cerdo,2 Cinna,3 or Perimede,4 or Peitho.5
