Styreans aren't from the place in Austria
The article has linked Styreans to the area in Austria called Styria, Steiermark, etc., which has a Wikipedia article. That's not the same place. I went to Herodotus, where the article is nicely footnoted. With some effort, I located these passages: The Styreans furnished the same ships as at Artemisium; the Cythnians, one and a penteconter : both these people are Dryopians. [Cary translation, viii 46] AND he first of all landed the slaves from Eretria on the island of the Styreans, called JEgilia [vi 107; the name of the island was garbled by Optical Character Recognition, but it's clearly not a place in what is now Austria] So I'm removing the link.
