Les polyclades (plathelminthes de vie libre) du nord de la Tunisie : Inventaire et distribution

Abstract

This work is a contribution to the knowledge of the polyclads collected from Northern Tunisian coasts. The prospection of some Northern Tunisian coasts allowed us to collect eight polyclad species belonging to different families and different genera. Three species (Discocelis tigrina, Prostheceraeus moseleyi and Pseudoceros maximus) are signalized for the first time in Tunisia. A checklist of Tunisian species and their geographic distribution are presented. Additionally, data on the taxonomic position and habitat of each species are given
