Echinobothrium bonasum sp. n. is described from the cownose ray, Rhinoptera bonasus (Mitchill), taken in Atlantic coastal waters of Chesapeake Bay, Virginia, and off Sakonnet Point, Rhode Island. This species can be distinguished from all others by the following combination of characters: 14 hooklets armature of 11 large hooks, six in the anterior row and five in the posterior row, flanked by 12 to 14 hooklets per side; 24 to 25 spines per row on the cephalic peduncle; 24 to 31 testes per segment, and, wide vitelline bands that overlap the testicular field.
新种博氏棘槽绦虫（Echinobothrium bonasum sp. n.）采自弗吉尼亚州切萨皮克湾大西洋沿岸水域以及罗德岛州萨孔尼特角外海的牛鼻鲼（Rhinoptera bonasus，米契尔）。该物种可通过以下特征组合与其他所有物种区分开来：具11个大钩的小钩排列，前排6个，后排5个，两侧各有12至14个小钩；头节每排有24至25根棘；每节有24至31个睾丸，以及宽阔的卵黄带，其与睾丸区域重叠。
