The Diocese of Noba ({{lang-la|Dioecesis Nobensis|links=no}}) is a former Christian diocese located in present-day Algeria. It is currently a Catholic titular see. In antiquity, the diocese was centered on the Roman town of Noba, in the province of Mauretania Caesariensis. The Roman town is now lost to history.[1] We know of various bishops of the diocese. Mesnage,[2] unlike Morcelli, attributes only two bishops to the town, mentioned in 484; While Morcelli a third, Felix, though he could also belong to another town of this name.[3] Today Noba survives as a titular bishopric. The current bishop is Gilson Andrade da Silva, auxiliary bishop of San Salvador of Bahia.[4] Known bishops
