In Greek mythology, the name Ilioneus may refer to:

  • A Trojan elder, who implored Diomedes to spare him, but was killed nevertheless.[3]
  • A companion of Aeneas. He was one of those whose ships sank during the storm in which Aeneas and his people were caught.[4] Being the eldest of the Trojan survivors with Aeneas, he was the first to speak to Dido when they entered her palace at Carthage.[5]
