Abstract The tiger flatworm Prostheceraeus crozieri (Polycladida) develops via an eight‐lobed, and three‐eyed planktonic Müller's larva. This larva has an apical organ, ultrastructural details of which remain elusive due to a scarcity of studies.

The nervous system in Prolecithophora has been studied for the first time using fluorescent immunocytochemistry. It consists of a brain and three longitudinal nerve cords, which are connected on either side of the body by the main lateral commissure. The ventral cords are considered as main cords and show two pairs of brain roots.

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

Larval Development in Echinoplana celerrima (Turbellaria: Polycladida)
Abstract Here, the ultrastructure of the female gonad of the marine polyclad Echinoplana celerrima was investigated using both light and electron microscopy. The female gonads are dispersed in the dorsal parenchyma between the digestive ramifications.

Put a tiger in your tank: the polyclad flatworm Maritigrella crozieri as a proposed model for evo-devo [PDF]
Polyclad flatworms are an early branching clade within the rhabditophoran Platyhelminthes. They provide an interesting system with which to explore the evolution of development within Platyhelminthes and amongst Spiralia (Lophotrochozoa).
