{{short description|Three star systems in the constellation Taurus}} [[File:Hyades cluster.jpg|thumb|Hyades cluster. The three δ Tauri stars form a triangle at the top, with δ<sup>3</sup> at the top, δ<sup>1</sup> on the right, and δ<sup>2</sup> on the left of the base.]] The Bayer designation '''Delta Tauri''' (δ Tau, δ Tauri) is shared by three star systems in the constellation Taurus. They are all members of the Hyades star cluster.
* δ<sup>1</sup> Tauri * δ<sup>2</sup> Tauri * δ<sup>3</sup> Tauri
Because they are close to the ecliptic, these stars can be occulted by the Moon and, very rarely, by planets.<ref name=Trunkovskij/>
