Tabaicara was a Roman-Berber civitas and bishopric in Mauretania Caesariensis. It is now a Latin Catholic titular see.
Tabaicara was among the cities of sufficient importance in the Roman – Berber province of Mauretania Caesariensis, in the papal sway, to become a suffragan diocese. It was located in modern Algeria, but faded so completely (like) most), plausibly at the late 7th century of Islam, that the location of the cathedra is still unknown.
Three bishops of this diocese are documented from antiquity.
The diocese was nominally restored in 1933 as Latin titular bishopric of Tabaicara (Latin = Curiate Italian) / Tabaicaren(sis) (Latin adjective).
It has had the following incumbents, so far of the fitting Episcopal (lowest) rank :
