In this study we consider $varphi -$conformally flat, $varphi -$% conharmonically flat, $varphi -$projectively flat and $varphi -$% concircularly flat Lorentzian $alpha -$Sasakian manifolds. In all cases, we get the manifold will be an $eta -$Einstein manifold.
Keywords: The Weyl conformal curvature tensor, the conharmoic curvature tensor, the projective curvature tensor, the concircular curvature tensor, Trans-Sasakian manifolds, Lorentzian $alpha -$Sasakian manifolds
