The diametral path of a graph is the shortest path between two vertices which has length equal to diameter of that graph. Total graph of a graph is a graph that has vertices representing all vertices and edges of the original graph and edges representing every vertex-vertex adjacency, edge-edge adjacency and edge-vertex incidence. In this paper, the number of diametral paths is determined for the paths, cycles and stars and their total graphs.
