During the investigation of the trematodes of birds in district Swabi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, ten specimens of the genus Tamerlania Skrjabin, 1924, were collected from the kidneys of single host, Corvus splendens. The specimens were studied and identified as Tamerlania swabiensis new species on the basis of shape and size of the body; having pointed spines on the body; symmetrical, juxtaposed and elongated testes; transversely elongated, sub-median ovary located just above the right testis, and Vitelline bands commencing at the level of the middle of the testes.
