Flavius Illus (; died 488) was a Roman general who played an important role in the reigns of the Eastern Emperors Zeno and Basiliscus.
Illus supported the revolt of Basiliscus against Zeno and switched sides to support the return of Zeno (475–476). Illus served Zeno well, defeating the usurper Marcianus, but came into conflict with the Dowager Empress Verina, and supported the revolt of Leontius. The rebellion failed, and Illus was killed.
