Dr. Miguel Telles Antunes GOIH (born 11 January 1937) is a Portuguese academic, specializing in paleontology, zooarchaeology, and geology. Antunes is a ranking member of various institutions, including the Lisbon Academy of Sciences, Nova University of Lisbon, and the Lourinhã Museum of Ethnology and Archaeology.

Antunes is the namesake of the scientific names of multiple species, from dinosaurs to insects, owing to his preeminence as the field of paleontology and archaeology, the most notable of which is the Lourinhanosaurus antunesi, a theropod dinosaur of the late Jurassic period.
