Abstract: Within the free-living platyhelminths, the triclads, or planarians, are the best-known group, largely as a result of long-standing and intensive research on regeneration, pattern formation and Hox gene expression. However, the group's evolutionary history has been long debated, with controversies ranging from their phyletic structure and position within the Metazoa to the relationships among species within the Tricladida. Over the the last decade, with the advent of molecular phylogenies, some of these issues … Show more

“…However, current phylogenetic analyses do not support this basal position of the Platyhelminthes within Bilateria (Riutort et al 2012 ); moreover, Acoela and Nemertodermatida, previously included within the Platyhelminthes, are now placed in a separate phylum, the Acoelomorpha (Ruiz-Trillo et al 1999 ). The position of the Acoelomorpha is still under debate, as they have been considered basal bilaterians or, more recently, basal deuterostomes (Philippe et al 2011 ).…”

“…Molecular phylogenetic studies place the Platyhelminthes within the Spiralia clade. The most recent internal phylogenies support the subdivision of the Platyhelminthes into two main groups: the earliest branching lineages grouped into the paraphyletic 'Archoophora' and the more divergent monophyletic Neoophora (Laumer and Giribet 2014 ;Riutort et al 2012 ). The 'Archoophora' includes those groups with endolecithal eggs.…”
