thumb|right|Roman Empire - Mauretania Caesariensis (125 AD) Flenucleta was an ancient Berber, Roman and Byzantine civitas located in the Mediterranean hinterland of what was then the province of Mauretania Caesariensis. It was situated in present-day northern Algeria. The exact location of the city is unknown.
Flenucleta was also the seat of the Catholic Church diocese of Flenucleta which goes back to a Roman era bishopric in the ancient town of the same name. Although the diocese ceased to effectively function with the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb, the diocese has been re-established in name at least as a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.
