We study the pair production of L̃4, which is the supersymmetric partner of the fourth family charged lepton, at the e +e- colliders. It is shown that the investigation of this process at ILC/CLIC will give the opportunity to differentiate the MSSM with three and four families. The ILC with √s = 1 and Lint=1ab -1 has the potential for the observation of the fourth family slepton with mass up to 420 GeV, if the fourth SM family neutrino has a Dirac nature. The CLIC with √s = 3 and Lint=1ab-1 will enlarge the observation region up to ml̃4=580Gev. © 2011 Europhysics Letters Association.
