These are the ones I know of;

They were supposedly handmaidens of Persephone who preyed for wings and were granted them as the looked for her but eventually gave up but kept the wings.

It is also said that the Muses had a contest with the Sirens, which the Sirens lost and crowns were made of their feathers.

The sirens supposedly killed the Centaurs who fled Heracles.

The Argonauts also encountered them, but they were drowned out by the music of Orpheus.

And of course, The Odyssey encounter.

Telemachos, the son of Odysseus, was killed by them.
