In this paper, we are concerned with the algebraic representation of the quasi-nilpotent part for prehermitian operators on Banach spaces. The quasi-nilpotent part of an operator plays a significant role in the spectral theory and Fredholm theory of operators on Banach spaces. Properties of the quasi-nilpotent part are investigated and an application is given to totally paranormal and prehermitian operators.
