Augusto César Cardoso de Carvalho (31 March 1836 – 3 February 1905)[1] was a Portuguese colonial administrator and a general of the Portuguese Army. He was governor of Portuguese Timor from 1880 to 1881,[2] governor-general of Portuguese India from 16 December 1886 until 27 April 1889[3] and governor of Cape Verde from 12 June 1889 until 4 February 1890.[4]

During his tenure as governor of Timor, in early 1881, the Timorese Kingdom of Cová submitted to Portuguese authority.[5] During his administration in Portuguese India, the harbour of Mormugao and the railway line from there to the then-border with British India were opened.[6]
