Abstract:
About a year ago when examining the intestinal contents of various fresh-water fishes of Bengal, I obtained a new acanthocephalan parasite, Acanthosentis dattai , from the small intestine of Barbus ticto and B. stigma . In a single host as many as twenty were obtained, but the average number of parasites taken from other hosts was four to ten. Some of these were found lying in a sluggish state in the lumen of the intestine. About the months of July and August some were found in copula.
