I attended the #zoodny2024 conference in recent days. My question: Does that place also have planarians? (I'm not counting the ones present on my poster!) Of course, it does have #planarians; the river is cca 100 m from the venue. Here's a regenerating Polycelis sp. from Ostrava.

Prostoma [most likely graecense] - freshwater #nemerteans from weekend fieldwork session. Biggest nemerteans which we ever found. Super annoying size - too big for microscope, too small for macro photo. Noodles will be examined histologicaly in following weeks. #zoology #meiofauna
