One species of each of the following genera have also been identified and described: Pleorchis Raillet, 1896; Decemtestis Ozaki, 1925 Stephanostomum Looss, 1899; Plagioporus Stafford, 1904 and Prosorhynchus Odhner, 1905. Two species of the genus Bucephalus Baer, 1827 are also reported. This work will be continued as numerous fishes of Karachi coast are still uninvestigated for trematode parasites. These informations are useful for the researchers in this field as well as for the fish farmers, teachers and students of fish parasitology.
