We study Wilson loops in N=6 superconformal Chern–Simons theory with gauge group that is dual to N M2-branes and (M−N) fractional M2-branes, or equivalently, discrete 3-form holonomy at C4/Zk orbifold singularity. We give a description of these Wilson loops in terms of macroscopic fundamental string and D6-branes in the dual AdS
