Paraplanaria is a genus of triclad belonging to the family Planariidae. [1] [2]
The genus is characterized by a "musculo-glandular posterior diverticulum of the atrium". [3]

Romankenkius is a genus of freshwater planarian in the family Dugesiidae.
Stygobromus kenki is a rare species of amphipod, a crustacean. Its common names include Kenk's amphipod, Rock Creek groundwater amphipod, and Rock Creek stygobromid.
Bathymodiolus is a genus of deep-sea mussels, marine bivalve molluscs in the family Mytilidae. Many of them contain intracellular chemoautotrophic bacterial symbionts.
Girardia is a genus of freshwater planarians belonging to the family Dugesiidae.
Dendrocoelidae is a family of freshwater tricladida flatworms that has a holarctic distribution.
Girardia tigrina, known as the brown planarian or the immigrant triclad flatworm, is a species of dugesiid native to the Americas. It has been accidentally introduced into Europe and Japan.
Bopsula evelinae is a species of dugesiid triclad, the only one in the genus Bopsula. This species is found in Brazil.
Dimarcusidae is a family of triclads found mostly in freshwater habitats of caves, although at least one species, Rhodax evelinae, occurs in surface waters. Currently the family contains only seven species distributed in five genera, although the total number of species is thought to be much higher.
