Father of Dantavaktra

In the Brahma Purāṇa’s account of the Yādavas, Śūra had ten sons, Vasudeva first, and five daughters, wives of heroes: Pṛthukīrti, Pṛthā, Śrutadevā, Śrutaśravā and Rājādhidevī. On Śrutaśravā was born the Caidya named Śiśupāla, who in his previous birth was Hiraṇyakaśipu, lord of the daityas. From Vṛddhaśarman on Pṛthukīrti was born Dantavaktra, lord of Karūsha.
