  We present the quasinormal frequencies of the massive scalar field in the
background of a Schwarzchild black hole surrounded by quintessence with the
third-order WKB method. The mass of the scalar field $u$ plays an important
role in studying the quasinormal frequencies, the real part of the frequencies
increases linearly as mass $u$ increases, while the imaginary part in absolute
value decreases linearly which leads to damping more slowly and the frequencies
having a limited value. Moreover, owing to the presence of the quintessence,
the massive scalar field damps more slowly.
