Mushulatubbee (ChoctawAmoshulit Ʋbi, "Determined to Kill") (born c. 1765, died 1838) was the chief of the ChoctawOkla Tannap, one of the three major Choctaw divisions during the early 19th century. He led his warriors to assist General Andrew Jackson in the war against the Creek Red Sticks, known as the Creek Wars.

He also was influential in getting treaties signed with the federal government, and resisting settler encroachment on Choctaw lands. When Principal Chief Greenwood LeFlore stayed in Mississippi at the time of removal, Mushulatubbee was elected as principal chief, leading the tribe to Indian Territory.
