Wulfhun was a Bishop of Selsey (in modern-day England) during the 10th century.

In 931 Wulfhun witnessed a charter of King Athelstan, although his see is not mentioned.[1]

According to Kelly, Wulfhun continued to attest until 940, but was no longer in office by 943.[2] It is therefore assumed that Wulfhun died between 940 and 943.[3]
