First records of Cotylea (Polycladida, Platyhelminthes) for the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]
A study of polyclad fauna of the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula was carried out from 2010 to 2013. The paper reports nine new records belonging to three Cotylean families: the family Euryleptidae Lang, 1884, Pseudocerotidae Lang, 1884 and the ...

A phylogenomic approach to resolving interrelationships of polyclad flatworms, with implications for life-history evolution [PDF]
Platyhelminthes (flatworms) are a diverse invertebrate phylum useful for exploring life-history evolution. Within Platyhelminthes, only two clades develop through a larval stage: free-living polyclads and parasitic neodermatans.

The Ultrastructure of the Apical Organ of the Goette's Larvae of the Polyclad Flatworm Stylochus pilidium Indicates Homology Between Polyclad Larvae. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Polyclad flatworms exhibit both direct and indirect development, with various larval types observed, including Müller's larva, Kato's larva, Goette's larva and Curini‐Galletti's larva. The different larval types are distinguished by shape, number of eyes and number of lobes.

Phylogeny of Polycladida (Platyhelminthes) based on mtDNA data [PDF]
A phylogenetic analysis of Polycladida based on two partial mitochondrial genes (cox1 and 16S) is provided. The analysis includes 30 polyclad terminals that represent species from the two taxa which traditionally divide the groups Cotylea and Acotylea ...
