Jacopo Gattilusio, Lord of Lesbos (or Giacomo; – 1428) was the third ruler of an independent Lesbos from 1404 to 1428.
He was the eldest son of Francesco II of Lesbos and Valentina Doria. He succeeded to his realm on 26 October 1404.
Jacopo was married to Bona Grimaldi. Only one child is known:
Niccolò mentioned Jacopo as his father-in-law in his correspondence from the year 1426. However the name of his wife remains unknown. Niccolò had eleven children but no record exists of their mother or mothers.
An account by Caterino Zeno dated to 1574 names Niccolò as married to Valenza Megali Komnene, a supposed sister of daughter of John IV of Trebizond. Whether this means Niccolò took a second wife or whether Zeno was in error has been debated by genealogists.
Jacopo died with no son of his own. He was succeeded by his younger brother Dorino of Lesbos.
