    <abstract language="eng"><p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Aplectana duttaphryni </em>Sou, Sow and Nandi, 2014 was first reported in Kulti, Asansol coal-mine region, West Bengal from a toad, <em>Duttaphrynus melanostictus</em> (Schneider, 1899) only using light microscope. Present article describes, <em>A. duttaphryni </em>in details collected from the rectum of an anuran frog, <em>Fejervarya limnocharis </em>(Gravenhorst, 1829) in Birbhum district, West Bengal. <em>Aplectana duttaphryni</em> is reported for the first time from Birbhum district, West Bengal. The parasites identified by its lanceolate shaped gubernaculum, presence of 1 pair of similar and equal spicules and also with the presence of 3 pairs of preanal papillae, 2 pairs of adanal papillae, 13 pairs of postanal papillae and single papillae on the upper lip of anus. In the present study, Birbhum district recorded as new geographical locality and <em>F. limnocharis</em> recorded as a new host.</p></abstract>
