Reversible shifts between interstitial and epibenthic habitats in evolutionary history : Molecular phylogeny of the marine flatworm family Boniniidae (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida: Cotylea) with descriptions of two new species

open access: yesReversible shifts between interstitial and epibenthic habitats in evolutionary history : Molecular phylogeny of the marine flatworm family Boniniidae (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida: Cotylea) with descriptions of two new species
Tiny animals in various metazoan phyla inhabit the interstices between sand and/or gravel grains, and adaptive traits in their body plan, such as simplification and size reduction, have attracted research attention. Several possible explanations of how such animals colonized interstitial habitats have been proposed, but their adaptation to this ...

Cotylea (Polycladida): a cladistic analysis of morphology [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Biology, 2008
Abstract. Polyclad flatworms are acoelomate bilaterians found in benthic communities worldwide, predominantly in marine environments. Current polyclad systematics is unstable, with two non‐concordant classification schemes resulting in a poor understanding of within‐group relationships. Here we present the first phylogenetic framework for the suborder

Description of Pericelis flavomarginata sp. nov. (Polycladida: Cotylea) and its predatory behavior on a scaleworm

Zootaxa, 2020
We describe a new species of polyclad flatworm, Pericelis flavomarginata sp. nov., from the intertidal and subtidal zones along localities on the Pacific coast of Japan. Pericelis flavomarginata sp. nov. is characterized by i) the dorsal surface of the body fringed by a lemon-yellow line except for the tip of tentacles, with a narrow brown midline ...

A new bathyal species of Cestoplana (Polycladida: Cotylea) from the West Pacific Ocean

Marine Biodiversity, 2018
We describe Cestoplana nopperabo sp. nov. from 292- to 439-m depths in Sagami Bay, Japan. This is the eighth member of the genus, representing the first report of a bathyal polyclad from the Indo-West Pacific. Cestoplana nopperabo sp. nov. is characterized by lacking eyespots; it shows no color pattern on the dorsal surface of the body, unlike other ...

Ultrastructure of the ovary and oogenesis in the flatworm Prosthiostomum siphunculus (Polycladida, Cotylea)

Cell Biology International, 2016
AbstractBased on light and electron microscopy observations, oogenesis in the cotylean polyclad Prosthiostomum siphunculus was investigated for the first time. The numerous ovarian follicles are dispersed essentially in the dorsal parenchyma. In the follicles, a ventral germinative zone with undifferentiated germs cells of different sizes and a dorsal ...
