Strigeid metacercaria shenanigans continuing. Cysts were isolated from Erpobdella octoculata leeches. Polarized for visualization of double-layered cyst wall. One cercaria got out of the cyst, received mugshot as well. Barcoding primers are on the way. #parasitology #FlatwormFriday #invertebrate
I'm not dead. Just very busy. Not much of time for internet at those days. Some adult Dugesia gonocephala from recent Slovakia batch. #FlatwormFriday
#FlatwormFriday. Taenia pisiformis scolex. 4 suckers, calcareous corpuscles in parenchyma are visible under tegument. Nice muscle fibers in parenchymal tissue. Just tiny slice, in mm scale. 500x, H&E, several frames. Not my production, operator was somebody from T. Gerrard & Co, UK #parasitology

We already had 'para' in Paraba, what about second 'para' in Paraba? #FlatwormFriday www.scielo.br/j/zool/a/Qwz...
Happy #FlatwormFriday! Here’s a lil guy cuddled up in the sweet embrace of a larval Psephenus herricki
Okay it appears #FlatwormFriday has already been started by other BUT!! we need more freshwater representation 💗 and derpy eyes
I’ve decided we need to do Flatworm Fridays. So here’s a cute derpy flatworm for y’all (and yes, they’re always crosseyed) #flatwormfriday #turbellaria
Late #FlatwormFriday. My @inaturalist.bsky.social platyhelminth ID #10000 is this weirdo. Who it might be? Looks like one of European microplanids with several ocelli. Send samples! www.inaturalist.org/observations...
Tiger or lined flatworm
Spiny sea rod and giant basket star
Happy Friday! Kicking off the weekend with a couple of fun snaps 📷 ✨ Tiger flatworm (Prostheceraeus crozieri) on a tunicate and a spiny sea rod (Muricea elongata) with a giant basket star (Astrophytom muricatum).

That's right.

Over the years, nearly every day has gotten an invertebrate taxon for # ! offhand these include #molluscmonday, #molluskmonday #tunicateTuesday #wormwednesday #spongeThursday #octocoralFriday #flatwormFriday #seaspiderSaturday and of course my ongoing #echinoday
SOI found Xenoturbella at methane seeps near the coast of Chile today. Lost socks available at www.youtube.com/watch?v=3c34..., I hope we will see more of them today. GBIF is negative on them in this area.I missed some papers or is this brand new location for them? 🌿 #invertebrate #FlatwormFriday 🧪
It's #FlatwormFriday ;] So there is Prosthiostomum sp.,most likely siphunculus. Intertidal zone of Catalonia, Spain. We met those before on previous planarian conference just few kilometers away from this new locality🌿 #invertebrate 🧪 🪱
We visited Koda karst springs last weekend. It's home for several species of planarians and microturbellarians. On picture is adult specimen of Dugesia gonocephala, largest planarian species on that locality. #FlatwormFriday #invertebrates 📸 🌿
Another Rhynchodemus sylvaticus, sample 248_1 this time. No male maturity but female parts are developed quite well . Only one from whole batch which was done with H&E. 25x, tons of frames. #microscopy #invertebrates #FlatwormFriday 🧪 🌿
It's #FlatwormFriday, check out this gem which appeared on iNat yesterday. #invertebrates

It's Friday, let's have #FlatwormFriday. I have few rare polyclad records in my collection, there is very latest acquisition. Meet this member of Notocomplanidae family from Lota. Chile. #Invertebrates 🌿
Early #FlatwormFriday
Nymphozoon cinderella sp. nov. (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida: Pseudocerotidae), a new species of marine flatworm from Japan
