Genetic differentiation between two synonymous echinostomes species, Artyfechinostomum malayanum and Artyfechinostomum sufrartyfex was determined by using the first and second internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2), the non-coding region of rDNA as genetic makers. Of the 699 bp of combined ITS1 and ITS2 sequences examined, 18 variable nucleotide positions (2.58 %) were observed. Of these, 17 positions could be used as diagnostic position between these two sibling species, whereas the other one variation was intraspecific variation of A. malayanum. A clade of A. malayanum was closely aligned with A. sufrartyfex and clearly distance from the cluster of other echinostomes. Our results may sufficiently suggest that the current synonymy of these species is not valid.
