This paper reports on the Bardeen-Stephen model of viscous flux motion in isotropic type-II superconductors extended to the anisotropic case characterized by a phenomenological effective mass tensor m{sub ij}. When the magnetic field is low and the vortex lines are aligned along one of the three principal axes, simple expressions for the viscosity tensor {eta}{sub ij} of the viscous flux motion are obtained as functions of m{sub ij} and the normal state conductivity tensor {sigma}{sub ij} for temperature T close to the critical temperature T{sub c}.
