A generalized non-linear Fisher equation in cylindrical coordinates with radial symmetry is studied from Lie symmetry point of view. In the classical Fisher equation the reaction diffusion term is replaced with a general function to accommodate more equations of this type. Moreover, the diffusivity is assumed to be a function of the dependent variable to account for many real situations. An attempt is made to classify the diffusivity function and exact solutions are obtained in some cases.
