No. But there are other ancient Churches who have Patriarchs which they also call Pope and believe that they are the true successors of Peter.

The Coptic, Syriac, Eastern Orthodox, and perhaps others.

The Coptic or Egyptian Church considers itself the True Church and split from the Catholic Church in ad 451.

At approximately the same time, but a bit later, the Syriac followed suit and split from the Catholic Church for the same reasons. As the name implies, the Syriac Church is based in Syria.

Both schisms can be traced to the Council of Chalcedon.

Finally, there are the Eastern Orthodox Churches, which are a group of independent Churches which are based on national identity and which split from the Church between ad 800 and 1000. These include the Russian and Greek Orthodox Churches.

I hope that helps.

I think it’s just the Catholic Church, but it’s worth mentioning that the Catholic Church has two rites. In addition to Roman Catholicism, there’s also Eastern Catholicism. Both are in communion with Rome, both are lead by the Pope, but they have some differences. One big difference is that in Eastern Catholicism married men can be ordained as Priests (though they can’t remarry if their wife dies, and they can’t be promoted to Bishop while married).

Apart from that there are sedevacantists and anti-Popes and Vatican II rejectors, but not in notable numbers.
