A new species of parasitic nematode, Rhabdochona (Rhabdochona) keralaensis sp. nov. (family Rhabdochonidae), is described based on specimens recovered from the intestine of the Indian mottled eel Anguilla bengalensis bengalensis (Gray) collected from the freshwater bodies of Kerala State, southern India. It is characterized mainly by the presence of ten anterior prostomal teeth, absence of basal teeth, simple deirids, length of spicules (585-636 µm and 270-315 µm), number and arrangement of preanal papillae and non-filamented eggs. Two species of camallanid nematodes, adults of Camallanus cotti Fujita, 1927 and a single Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) sp. fourth-stage larva, were also recorded from A. bengalensis. Camallanus cotti, is reported for the first time from a representative of the fish family Anguillidae. Descriptions of R. keralaensis and Indian specimens of C. cotti, based on light and scanning electron microscopical examinations, are provided.
