A new species of cestode belonging to the genus Anthobothrium is obtained from the host Dasyatis uarnak. A detailed examination of this specimen has allowed us to erect a new species Anthobothrium to accommodate the worm. It shows remarkable differences from other known species of Anthobothrium in having 4-5 pairs of bigger loculi, number of testes size of the worm, bothridial size, shape and size of proglottids and ovary. The new species is designated as Anthobothrium loculatum.
