Auxiliary bishops can also be titular bishops of sees that no longer exist as territorial jurisdictions. Roman Catholicism In the Catholic Church, auxiliary bishops exist in both the Latin Church and in the Eastern Catholic Churches. The particular duties of an auxiliary bishop are given by the diocesan bishop and can vary widely depending on the auxiliary bishop, the ordinary, and the needs of the diocese. In a larger archdiocese, they might be assigned to serve a portion of the archdiocese (sometimes called deaneries, regions, or vicariates) or to serve a particular population such as immigrants or those of a particular heritage or language. Canon law recommends that the diocesan bishop appoint an auxiliary bishop as vicar general of the diocese. In May 2017, Gregorio Rosa Chávez was one of the first Roman Catholic auxiliary bishop ...

Sufar
The diocese of Sufar was an episcopal see in the Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis during late antiquity. The exact location of the see is unknown, but it is believed to have been situated in what is now modern-day Algeria. Christianity arrived relatively late in Mauretania Caesariensis compared to other regions of Roman North Africa, possibly sparing it from some of the earlier theological controversies. Like most bishoprics in the western part of the province, Sufar appears to have flourished from late antiquity until sometime after the First Council of Nicaea. Two bishops of Sufar are recorded in the ''Notitiae episcopatuum'' of 484: Victor and Romanus, both bearing the designation ''Sufaritanus''. This duplication has led to scholarly debate. Writing in the early nineteenth century, Stefano Antonio Morcelli argued that the town known as Sufasar, located between Manliana and Veliscos in Mauretania Caesariensis according to the ''Itinerarium Antonini'', came to be k ...
