HMS Tithonus was a British Royal Navy ship, launched in 1873 as a wooden screw corvette. It was lost in 1918, likely during World War I, though the exact cause of its sinking remains unspecified; no details on lives or cargo lost are recorded. Its significance lies in its historical role as a pre-dreadnought naval vessel, representing late 19th-century Royal Navy design.
