Benito Armiñán was a Spanish soldier who served as interim governor of Texas, replacing Cristóbal Domínguez, from October 1814 to July 1815, resigning from the government of the province due to health problems. He also stood out as the leader of the Extremadura Battalion, which fought against the pro-independence troops in several places in New Spain: Texas, Tamaulipas and San Luis Potosí.
