Abstract: Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called "automorphism orbits" of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $omega(G)$. In this paper we prove that if $G$ is an FC-group with finitely many automorphism orbits, then the derived subgroup $G^{\prime }$ is finite and $G$ admits a decomposition $G=Tor(G)imesD$, where $Tor(G)$ is the torsion subgroup of $G$ and $D$ is a divisible characteristic subgroup of $Z(G)$. We also show that if $G$ is an infinite FC-group with $omega(G)leqslant8$, then either $G$ is soluble or $Gcong{A}_{5}imesH$, where $H$ is an infinite abelian group with $omega(H)=2$. Moreover, we describe the structure of the infinite non-soluble FC-groups with at most eleven automorphism orbits.
