< em > Theama japonica < /em > sp. nov., an Interstitial Polyclad Flatworm Showing a Wide Distribution along Japanese Coasts
Zoolog Sci. 2023 Jun;40(3):262-272. doi: 10.2108/zs220105.ABSTRACTWe establish a new interstitial polyclad species, Theama japonica sp. nov., based on specimens collected from coarse-sandy habitats in three Japanese main islands (Hokkaido, Honshu, and Shikoku) along the coasts of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Japan. Theama japonica is characterized by i) two pairs of cerebral eyespots and four to six precerebral eyespots; ii) eosinophilic secretion glands distributed in the distal half of the inner ventral part of the prostatic vesicle; iii) a conical penis papilla, bent up dorsally, with a sclerotized inner wall; iv) t...
