This article is about the mother of Tantalus. For the Oceanid nymph, see Plouto (Oceanid).

In Greek mythology, Plouto or Pluto (Ancient Greek: Πλουτώ means 'wealth') was the mother of Tantalus, usually by Zeus, though the scholion to line 5 of Euripides' play Orestes, names Tmolos as the father. According to Hyginus, Plouto's father was Himas, while other sources give her father as Cronus.

According to the Clementine Recognitions, the mother of Tantalus, called either Plutis or Plute, was the daughter of Atlas. Nonnus, calling her "Berecyntian Pluto" associates Plouto with Berecyntus, a mountain in Phrygia sacred to Cybele.
