Danilo Elvis Turcios Funes (born on May 8, 1978 in Sonaguera, Honduras) is a Honduran football midfielder, who currently plays for Comunicaciones. He was a member of the national squad at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.

Turcios began his professional career with Universidad of his native Honduras in 1996, then he played with Motagua winning his first Honduran championship before moving to Deportivo Maldonado of Uruguay in 2001. After a year with Maldonado, he moved to Defensor Sporting, where he would last even less time, moving later in the year to Peñarol.

He joined Tecos for the 2003 Apertura and immediately proved his worth, appearing in all 21 of the team's games, scoring one goal. Turcios continued his performance in the 2004 Clausura, appearing in 15 games, all starts, and scoring two goals, although he saw reduced time in the Apertura, appearing in only nine games.

Turcios is also an important player for the Honduras national football team.
