Flavius Dalmatius (died 337), also known as Dalmatius the Censor, was a censor (333), and a member of the Constantinian dynasty, which ruled over the Roman Empire at the beginning of the 4th century.
Dalmatius was the son of Constantius Chlorus and Flavia Maximiana Theodora, and thus half-brother of the Emperor Constantine I.
Dalmatius spent his youth in the Gallic Tolosa. It is probable that his two sons, Dalmatius and Hannibalianus, were born here. During the mid-320s, Flavius Dalmatius returned to Constantinople, to the court of his half-brother, and was appointed consul and censor in 333.
In Antioch, Flavius was responsible for the security of the eastern borders of the realm. During this period, he examined the case of bishop Athanasius of Alexandria, the important opponent of the Arianism, who was accused of murder. In 334, Flavius suppressed the revolt of Calocaerus, who had proclaimed himself emperor in Cyprus. In the following year he sent some soldiers to the council of Tyros to save the life of Athanasius.
His two sons were appointed to important offices under Constantine's administration, but Flavius Dalmatius and his sons were killed in the purges that followed the Emperor's death in May 337.

Flavius Dalmatius was the son of Constantius I and his wife Theodora, and the half-brother of the Emperor Constantine I . His two sons, by an unknown wife, Flavius Dalmatius and Hannibalianus held high offices in their uncle's administration. Although his early years seem to have been spent in Gaul at the city of Tolosa, he may have been recalled as early as the mid 320s. In any case, he was named a consul and censor in 333. In Antioch, where he seems to have been in charge of the Eastern frontier, he investigated a murder charge against Bishop Athanasius of Alexandria; in 333/334 he put down the revolt of the usurper Calocaerus in Cyprus. In 335, with some soldiers under his command, he was able to save Athanasius from certain death at the hands of his foes at the Council of Tyre. He was among those who perished in the imperial purges of 337 which followed the death of the Emperor Constantine in May of that year.
