In this paper, we discuss a new generalization of univariate skew- Cauchy distribution with two parameters, we denoted this by GSC(λ1, λ2), that it has more flexible than the skew-Cauchy distribution (denoted by SC(λ)), introduced by Behboodian et al. (2006). Furthermore, we establish some useful properties of this distribution and by two numerical example, show that GSC(λ1, λ2) can fits the data better than SC(λ).
