In the release notes for Lightning, it states that Javascript buttons and links are not supported in Lightning, but Visualforce and URL buttons are. I have created the following Visualforce button on the Account object:
However, I am not sure how to access this button from the Account record detail page because it does not show up as one of the actions:
My question is, how are custom buttons shown on the Lightning Record detail page, and how do I add/remove custom buttons from the page?

As per my comment, make sure you VF page is marked as Available for Salesforce1 and Lightning. Then the second thing you need to do is override the Salesforce1 and Lightning Experience Actions section in your page layout and add your button there instead of the normal place. You will will find your button available in the Salesforce1 Actions on the top of your screen. The order of your button list will define how it will be displayed in Lightning.
