Two species of acanthostomatid digeneans, Acanthostomum spiniceps (Looss, 1896) and A. absconditum (Looss, 1901) are redescribed on specimens obtained from Bagrus bayad and B. docmac from Egypt. Both trematode species distinctly differ from one another in the number of peribuccal spines (27--32 in A. spiniceps and 18--23 in A. absconditum) and shape and size of eggs. Therefore they cannot be considered to be conspecific. The author concludes that A. spiniceps and A. absconditum are not synonyms of A. imbutiforme (Molin, 1859), but two independent species differing both in morphology and ecology.
根据从埃及的巴格氏鲿（Bagrus bayad）和杜氏鲿（B. docmac）采集的标本，对两种棘口科复殖吸虫，即棘头棘口吸虫（Acanthostomum spiniceps，(鲁思，1896年)）和隐匿棘口吸虫（A. absconditum，(鲁思，1901年)）进行了重新描述。这两种吸虫在口周棘的数量（棘头棘口吸虫为27 - 32根，隐匿棘口吸虫为18 - 23根）以及虫卵的形状和大小方面明显不同。因此，它们不能被视为同种。作者得出结论，棘头棘口吸虫和隐匿棘口吸虫不是伊氏棘口吸虫（A. imbutiforme，(莫林，1859年)）的同义词，而是在形态和生态上都不同的两个独立物种。
