Notocomplana [Notocomplana]

Notocomplana
Description

Notocomplana is a lesser-known genus of cotylean polyclads, characterized by their relatively simple body plan and lack of distinctive, vibrant coloration found in more popular genera. These flatworms are typically found in sandy or muddy substrates, where they lead a more cryptic lifestyle. Notocomplana species are adapted to burrowing and are primarily detritivores, feeding on organic matter found within their substrate.
