Abstract / Notes

"Six new species of the genus Nematoplana are described [N. corsicana sp. nov., N. riegeri sp. nov., N.
caesarea sp. nov. N. sinaitica sp. nov., N. erythraeensis sp. nov. and N. caribbea sp. nov.] and the
systematic position of taxa belonging to the family Nematoplanidae assessed. The four genera of the family
are monophyletic, and phylogenetic relationships among them are described. For some of the species of the
genus Nematoplana, sister groups relationships could be ascertained."
