Pliotrema annae, Anna's sixgill sawshark, is a sawshark in the family Pristiophoridae found in Zanzibar (Western Indian Ocean). Until the latest observation, Pliotrema annae is known to live in shallow water at depths of 20–35 m (66–115 ft).
This shark has barbels which are located roughly half way from the rostral tip to the mouth. Its rostra are constricted between barbel origin and the nostrils.
