Macrostomidae Bradburia Notes
Brand et al. (2022) (citation) propose (p. 12) that Bradburia is currently not well supported and that its species will likely be placed in Macrostomum once molecular-sequence analysis becomes available. This argument is based, in part, on the fact that there is a clade in the genus Macrostomum, which includes Macrostomum evelinae, in which most species also have lateral protrusions on the stylet.
