Taxonomic remark This species has been considered to be a hirudinean for a long time (hence it's old placement in the genera Astacobdella and Branchobdella). Also Temnocephala was considered a taxon of Hirudinea by Blanchard (1849). It is only since Semper (Semper, 1872) and especially Haswell (1887; see p. 279-280) that Temnocephala is considered a taxon within Platyhelminthes. [details]
