Observations on feeding behavior by the terrestrial flatworm bipalium adventitium (platyhelminthes: Tricladida: Terricola) from Illinois
Magazine article from: The American Midland Naturalist
; ABSTACT.-Bipalium adventitium Hyman, 1943, an exotic terrestrial flatworm that is predatory on earthworms, is reported from Illinois for the first time. No-choice laboratory feeding tests were performed to test the acceptability of several lumbricid earthworm species as prey for B. adventitium and

Asexual Reproduction in Pygospic elegans C1aparede (Annelida, Polychaeta) in Relation to Parasitism by Lepocreadium setiferides (Miller and Northup) (Platyhelminthes, Trematoda).
Magazine article from: The Biological Bulletin
; DEAN G. MCCURDY Abstract. Life-history theory predicts that parasitized hosts should alter their investment in reproduction in ways that maximize host reproductive success. I examined the timing of asexual reproduction (fragmentation and regeneration) in the polychaete annelid Pygospic elegans
