Abstract / Notes

New freshwater triclads (3) are described from Tasmanian lakes. Two of these represent the 1st records of the
genus Spathula in Tasmania and the 3rd belongs to the endemic genus Romankenkuis. Taxonomic affinities of the
species are discussed and keys to all the Tasmanian genera and species are provided. These keys are to be
regarded as provisional. [New species described are: R. bilineatus, S. dittae and S. ochyra.].
