Ferrer d'Abella (or de Apilia) was a Catalan Dominican friar, diplomat, and scholar of the fourteenth century. He was the Archbishop of Neopatras (or Bishop) from some time before June 1323 until September 1330, when he was made Bishop of Mazzara, in Sicily. He had tried to become Archbishop of Torres in Sardinia in 1325, but was met with opposition and animosity of Pope John XXII.

His influence with the House of Barcelona which ruled in Neopatria, Sicily, and Sardinia was great. He was succeeded in Neopatras by one John Mascó.
