Catholic Church in Ecuador

The Catholic Church in Ecuador comprises only a Latin hierarchy, united in a national episcopal conference, which comprises:

four ecclesiastical provinces, each province is headed by the Metropolitanan archbishop of an archdiocese, and a total of 14 suffragan dioceses.
are also eight pre-diocesan, missionary Apostolic Vicariates, headed by Titular bishops
one Military Ordinariate in (and for the armed forces in all) Ecuador.^[1]

There is an Apostolic Nunciature as papal diplomatic representation (embassy level), in national capital Quito.

There are no Eastern Catholic jurisdictions and no titular sees. All defunct jurisdictions have current successor sees.

The boundaries of the 24 administrative provinces of Ecuador mostly coincide with the boundaries of most territorial ecclesiastical jurisdictions.

These are directly dependent on the Holy See.
