Zusammenfassung:The investigations include report of two new worms from marine fishes of Central West Coast of Goa in Arabian Sea. A trematode, Pedunculacetabulum spinatum n.sp. from Chorinemus mandetta and Wenyonia rhincodoni n.sp. from sharks, Rhincodon typus have been described and compared with closer species.
