If you are looking on your computer's iTunes you are looking for backups on that computer, not iCloud backups.


If you have backups of old devices that you no longer want, on your phone you can go to Settings > id > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups > select backup > Delete Backup


And/or to manage what you backup to the cloud : Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support
