Evaluating the ontogenetic external morphology of an ectoparasitic Torix tukubana (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae), with records of its new host amphibian species [PDF]
, 2019 Torix is a leech genus containing freshwater proboscidate species, and several members of this taxon are ectoparasites specific to amphibians. Torix tukubana inhabits mountain streams in Japan, and only two frog species are known to be hosts.

Travaux du Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle "Grigore Antipa", 2010 The first recorded occurrence of Hirudo verbana Carena, 1820 (Hirudinea: Arhynchobdellida: Hirudinidae) in Romania In 2005, a Hirudo verbana specimen was observed in Stracoş Valley, within the Tăşad Reserve (Bihor county, north-western Romania). Since the coloration pattern of this once forgotten species matches its genetic differentiation, the

Journal of Phylogenetics & Evolutionary Biology, 2015 Erpobdella octoculata Linnaeus, 1758 (Hirudinea: Arhynchobdellida: Erpobdellidae) is a very common and morphologically variable macrophagous predators of aquatic invertebrates. Here we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of this species, as the first representative of the suborder Erpobdelliformes.

Genome Size Diversity and Patterns within the Annelida [PDF]
, 2013 This thesis concerns genomic variation within the Annelida, for which genome size studies are few and provide data for only a handful of groups. Genome size estimates were generated using Feulgen image analysis densitometry for 35 species of leeches and ...
