Redescription of the leech Desserobdella phalera (Graf, 1899) n.comb. (Rhynchobdellida: Glossiphoniidae), with notes on its biology and occurrence on fishes

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1990
Desserobdella phalera (Graf, 1899) n.comb. is redescribed. This glossiphoniid leech deposits cocoons directly onto the substratum and belongs, therefore, in the subfamily Glossiphoniinae. It has the following generic characters: diffuse salivary glands, two pairs of coalesced eyes, one pair of mycetomes, and subdivision of primary annuli in complete ...

Zootaxa, 2009
In this study, two new species of Helobdella leeches, Helobdella octatestisaca n. sp. and Helobdella melananus n. sp., and a newly recorded species, Helobdella europaea, are reported. Morphological characters and DNA barcode analysis were used to identify the three new species.

Comparative Parasitology, 2003
Actinobdella inequiannulata was found on the white sucker. Catostomus commersoni, and less frequently on the longnose sucker, Catostomus catostomus, in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada. Catostomus commersoni parasitized with Act. inequiannulata was collected from July to October 1973 and May to October 1974.

[Osmoregulation in Hirudinea Rhynchobdellida Theromyzon tessulatum (O.F.M.). Experimental localization of the secretory zone of a regulation factor of water balance].

General and comparative endocrinology, 1983
The body water content of Theromyzon tessulatum changes considerably during the life cycle. Water content is low and undergoes little change during the first stages, but it strongly and regularly increases during the last stage prior to reproduction. It is controlled by a water balance factor (FRBH) released by the brain.
