    The authors investigate the existence of a solution to the integral equation \[ x(t) = f_1(t,\, x(t)) + \frac{f_2(t,\, x(t))}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\int_0^t\frac{u(t,\,\tau,\,x(\tau))}{(t-\tau)^{1-\alpha}}\,d\tau,\;\;t\in [0,\,\infty). \] Here, \(f_1,\, f_2\) and \(u\) are some continuous functions, \(\Gamma(\alpha)\) is the gamma function and \(\alpha \in (0,\, 1)\). The equation is considered in the space of continuous bounded functions on \([0,\, \infty)\). Under some conditions imposed on the functions \(f_1\), \(f_2\) and \(u\), it is shown that the equation admits at least one solution. An illustrative example is presented at the end of the paper.
