Febiana was city and former bishopric in Roman North Africa, which only remains a Latin Catholic titular see.
Febina, in present-day Tunisia, was among the many cities of sufficient importance in the Roman province of Byzacena, in the papal sway, to become a suffragan diocese of the Metropolitan of Carthage, but was to fade so completely its remains weren’t found, plausibly at the seventh century advent of Islam.
Two of its bishops are historically documented :
The diocese was nominally restored in 1933 as the Latin titular bishopric of Febiana (Latin = Curiate Italian) / Febianen(sis) (Latin adjective). Below is a list of Catholic prelates who have held this title, of the fitting episcopal rank, with one archiepiscopal exception:
