Does the frontal sensory organ in adults of the hoplonemertean Quasitetrastemma stimpsoni originate from the larval apical organ? [PDF]
Background The apical organ is the most prominent neural structure in spiralian larvae. Although it has been thoroughly investigated in larvae of the class Pilidiophora in phylum Nemertea, studies on its structure in other nemertean larvae are limited ...

Regeneration of the flatworm Prosthiostomum siphunculus (Polycladida, Platyhelminthes). [PDF]
AbstractFueled by the discovery of head regeneration in triclads (planarians) two and a half centuries ago, flatworms have been the focus of regeneration research. But not all flatworms can regenerate equally well and to obtain a better picture of the characteristics and evolution of regeneration in flatworms other than planarians, the regeneration ...
