The ultrastructure of the apical organ of Curini‐Galletti's larva, a new polyclad larval type
Abstract Polycladida are the only free‐living flatworms with a planktonic larval stage in some species. Currently, it is not clear if a larval stage is ancestral in polyclads, and which type of larva that would be. Known polyclad larvae are Müller's larva, Kato's larva and Goette's larva, differing by body shape and the number of lobes and eyes.

A molecular and pathophysiological approach to tissue regeneration in the planarian model [PDF]
Since early on, regeneration has been seen as a fascinating biological process of many living organisms. Planarians are especially suitable models to study the factors involved in this process given the extraordinary proliferative capacity of their ...
