The study reports three species of parasitic trematodes viz. Lecithochirium genypteri Manter, 1954, Opegaster plotosi Yamaguti, 1940 and Saccocoelioides octavus Szidat, 1970 which were collected from the fishes Polydactylus sextarius (Bloch & Schneider, 1801), Glossogobius giuris Hamilton, 1822 and Liza parsia (Hamilton, 1822), respectively from the Chilika lake. All the three reported species form new records of Indian fauna, while all three fish species form new host records for the respective parasites. The description and distribution of these parasites have been discussed in the present study.
