n this study, seven species of freshwater Microturbellaria are recorded for the first time from the Iberian fauna, belonging to the Orders: Macrostomida (Macrostomum rostratum), Proseriata (Bothrioplana semperi) and Rhabdocoela (Castradella gladiata, Opistomum inmigrans, Phaenocora minima, Microdalyellia kupelweiseri and M. tenennsensis). Other five species are recorded for the second time: Prorhynchus stagnalis (O. Lecithoepitheliata), Opisthocystis goettei, Castrella truncata, Mesostoma ehrenbergii and Rhynchomesostoma rostratum (O.
