Triloculotrema chisholmae n. sp. is described from three specimens collected from the nasal tissues of a deep-sea shark, the blacktailed spurdog Squalus melanurus Fourmanoir & Rivaton, caught off New Caledonia, South Pacific. The new species is distinguished from the only other and type-species of the genus, T. japanicae Kearn, 1993, by the morphology of the sclerotised male copulatory organ (shorter and straight versus curved) and shorter hamuli.
三腔吸虫新种Triloculotrema chisholmae是根据从一条深海鲨鱼黑尾角鲨(Squalus melanurus Fourmanoir & Rivaton)的鼻腔组织中采集的三个标本描述的,该鲨鱼在南太平洋新喀里多尼亚外海捕获。新物种与该属唯一的另一个物种及模式种——1993年的日本三腔吸虫(T. japanicae Kearn)的区别在于,其硬化的雄性交配器官形态(较短且直,而非弯曲)以及小钩较短。
