Pope, Patriarchs, and Major Archbishops in the Catholic Church
In 2006, Benedict XVI renounced the title of "Patriarch of the West" (Patriarcha Occidentis).[2]
Titular
The following patriarchs in the Latin Church are titular – that is, they have the title of patriarch for various historical reasons, but are not to be considered the same as the patriarchs and major archbishops who are heads of Churches sui iuris. These titular patriarchs are bishops of metropolitan archdioceses (except for Jerusalem) without other jurisdiction.
