Version 1.5 Description Species of the family Macrostomidae are small (~0.5 to 5 mm in length) and generally highly transparent microturbellarians. They are usually round in cross section, and with only the largest forms being dorso-ventrally flattened. They are distinguished from related animals by the possession of a simple pharynx and intestine, a single pair of lateral nerve cords, and by the absence of a statocyst.

Macrostomum
''Macrostomum'' is a genus of flatworm with a worldwide distribution, with over a hundred species described to date. These hermaphroditic, free-living flatworms are usually small in size, with large species reaching up to 5 mm in body length (e.g. ''Macrostomum tuba''). They are usually transparent, and the smaller species appear rather round in cross-section than dorsoventrally flattened. Name The term "''Macrostomum''", meaning "big-mouthed", derives from the Greek μάκρος ''makros'', "large", and στόμα, ''stoma'', mouth. Relative to other turbellaria, ''Macrostomum'' species have indeed a long mouth, connected to the gut by a muscular pharynx which can expand, in certain species, to almost the width of the animal. Ecology ''Macrostomum'' species inhabit different aquatic or moist environments. Turbellaria databasehttp://macrostomorpha.info/ Marine and brackish species are often interstitial (living in the space between grains of sediment), whereas freshwate ...
