Tao Huang (died 290), courtesy nameShiying, was a Chinese military general and politician in Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period and later for the Jin dynasty (266–420). Tao Huang was most notable for his administration of Jiaozhou for more than twenty years, during the Eastern Wu and Western Jin eras. He was also responsible for Wu's victory against Jin in Jiao between 268 and 271, one of the few major victories Wu had over Jin in the final years of the Three Kingdoms.
^Tao Huang's biography in Book of Jin noted that from Tao Huang's father Tao Ji to his grandson Tao Sui, a total of five members of the Tao clan across four generations had served as Inspector of Jiaozhou (Tao Ji, Tao Huang, Tao Wei, Tao Shu and Tao Sui).

^Tao Wei eventually became Inspector of Jiaozhou after Wu Yan's death. After Wu Yan’s death, the office of Inspector of Jiaozhou was held by Gu Mi (顧秘; son of Gu Ti), then Gu Can (顧參; son of Gu Mi), and then Gu Shou (顧壽; younger brother of Gu Can). As Inspector of Jiaozhou, Gu Shou killed some officials including one Hu Zhao, and wanted to kill Liang Shuo. Liang managed to escape, and raised an army to attack Gu Shou. Gu was captured and poisoned. Liang then invited Tao Wei (who was then Administrator of Cangwu, a post Tao Huang once held) to become Inspector of Jiaozhou. Like his father, Tao Wei was beloved by the people of Jiaozhou. However, he died after three years as Inspector of Jiaozhou.
