Abstract Planarian flatworms have emerged as highly promising models of body regeneration due to the many stem cells scattered through their bodies. Currently, there is no consensus as to the number of stem cells active in each cycle of regeneration or the equality of their relative contributions.

  • Predation on Invasive Land Gastropods by a Neotropical Land Planarian Piter Kehoma Boll and Ana Maria Leal-Zanchet*
    Journal of Natural History, 2015 Vol. 49, Nos. 17–18, 983–994, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00222933.2014.981312 Predation on invasive land gastropods by a Neotropical land planarian Piter Kehoma Boll and Ana Maria Leal-Zanchet* Instituto de Pesquisa de Planárias and Programa de Pós-Graduação em Biologia, Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos – UNISINOS, São Leopoldo, Brazil (Received 22 May 2014; accepted 23 October 2014; first published online 18 December 2014) Studies on the predatory behaviour of land planarians have focused mainly on established invasive species, while the feeding habits of non-invasive planarians are poorly understood. We analyse the predatory behaviour of Obama ladislavii,a land planarian native to southern Brazil that is common in both natural and human-disturbed areas. Observations were performed in the laboratory. Several groups of invertebrates were offered as possible prey and interactions between these invertebrates and planarians were recorded. Obama ladislavii fed on the introduced land gastropods Bradybaena similaris, Helix aspersa and Deroceras laeve, ignoring other invertebrates. Once potential prey were identified, we tested the ability of O. ladislavii to recognize and follow slime trails, and demonstrated the planarian’s ability to follow chemical trails from prey in the environment. The consumption of exotic species indicates a flexible, generalist diet that is consistent with the ability of O. ladislavii to adapt to environments altered by human activities. Thus, this species may become invasive if introduced outside of its original distribution, but it also has the potential to be used in biological control programs for pest management in its native range.

The food preference of Obama anthropophila Amaral, Leal-Zanchet & Carbayo, 2015, a species that seems to be spreading across Brazil’s human-modified environments, was investigated. Extensive experiments led to the conclusion that the generalized diet of this species may have facilitated its dispersal. The analysis of 132 feeding records of 44 geoplaninid species revealed a tendency for closely related species to feed on indi- viduals from similar taxonomic groups, suggesting that in this group behavioral evolution is more conserved than phylogenetic diversification.

The specimens showed the typical colour pattern of the species and barcoding (Cytochrome Oxidase I) demonstrated near- identity with a sequence of the same species from the USA. This is the first record of the species in Canada. Résumé. Des spécimens de Bipalium adventitium (Plathelminthes, Geoplanidae) ont été trouvés à Montréal, Québec, Canada. Les spécimens montraient le motif de couleur typique de l’espèce et le barcode (cytochrome oxydase I) était quasi-identique à une séquence de la même espèce provenant des États-Unis.

  • Obama Nungara
    OBAMA NUNGARA Nom commun : - Catégorie : FAUNE Famille : Geoplanidae Milieu : Terrestre, zone humides des milieux anthropisés (jardin, parcs…) Origine géographique : Argentine Nom anglais : Obama nungara Auteur : Carbayo, Alvarez-Presas, Jones & Riutort, 2016 Introduction en France : Métropole MODALITÉS DE GESTION L’espèce ne fait pas l’objet de mesures de gestion particulières. Un questionnaire a été mis en place pour améliorer les connaissances de l'écologie et de l'habitat d'Obama nungara (Cavaud, travaux en cours). MODALITÉS D’INTRODUCTION EN FRANCE ET IMPACTS DOCUMENTÉS En France, Obama nungara aurait été introduit en métropole via le commerce de plantes horticoles. Sa présence a été reportée au cours d’un programme de sciences participatives sur les vers plats (Justine et al., 2020). Entre 2013 et 2018, 530 signalements ont été remontés sur 72 départements, montrant une nette abondance le long des côtes atlantique et méditerranéenne. [caption id="attachment_58006" align="aligncenter" width="300"] Carte des enregistrements d'Obama nungara en France métropolitaine sur la période 2013-2018 (issue de Justine, et al. 2020)[/caption] Un second programme de sciences participatives a débuté en 2020 à l’Université Paris- Est Créteil, à l’Institut d’Écologie et des Sciences de l’Environnement de Paris (iEES Paris) afin de caractériser les habitats et la dispersion de cette espèce (Cavaud, travaux en cours). Ce projet de recherche tend également à quantifier et caractériser les impacts de l’invasion d’Obama nungara, qui n’ont pas été évalués à présent. Sur les îles britanniques, il a été montré que la prédation d’Arthurdendyus triangulatus, un autre plathelminthe envahissant, pouvait entraîner des réductions sévères dans les populations de vers de terre (Murchie & Gordon, 2013) et induire des changements majeurs dans la structure des communautés de ces organismes reconnus comme des ingénieurs de l’écosystème du sol.

Obama nungara: A flatworm from South America invades Germany In their Letter “Biosecurity for humanitarian aid” (Science 372, p. 581—582; 2021), M. P. van den Burg et al. wrote that “Invasive alien species are among the greatest threats to global biodiversity and ecosystem health, often causing multimillion dollar impacts”. As detailed by the authors, this truism clearly applies to the aftermath of natural disasters, such as the eruption of La Soufriere volcano on the Caribbean island of St. Vincent. Here, we briefly summarize a current European “biosecurity”-problem: the invasion of large, predatory land flatworms of the genus Obama, imported from South America. Land planarians (Geoplanidae), which are hermaphroditic “tricladid flatworms” (Platyhelminthes) have been studied since the 19th century, and fascinated biologists ever since (1). Most of these bizarre, sometimes colorful slimy invertebrates inhabit moist terrestrial areas in tropical regions of the world. More the 800 species have been described, with taxa as small as a few millimetres, to the spectacular “hammerhead worms” (genus Bipalium) that can reach a body length of up to 25 cm (2).

  • Where Does Obama Nungara Come From? the Flatworm
    Obama nungara invades France and Europe THE FLATWORM Obama nungara is flat and 5-10 centimetres in length. Its colour varies from orange to dark brown. The head end bears hundreds of minute eyes. Its mouth is not located on its head, but in the middle of the underside of the body. WHERE DOES OBAMA NUNGARA COME FROM? Most species of the genus Obama, including Obama nungara, are native to South America. Specimens have been found in Brazil and Argentina. WHY THE NAME OBAMA? The genus name, Obama, was created using two words from an indigenous Brazilian language and means flat as a leaf, which perfectly describes a flatworm’s general shape RECORDING THE INVASION The occurrence of flatworms in France, and throughout Europe, was recorded using citizen science. Hundreds of members of the public took pictures of flatworms in their gardens and sent them to scientists, who verified the species of flatworm (as there are other species of land flatworms in France). CITIZENS IN PICTURES OF GARDENS FLATWORMS MOLECULAR STUDY OF POPULATIONS Using molecular tools, scientists could distinguish 3 populations of Obama nungara: 2 in Argentina and 1 in Brazil. WHAT POPULATION INVADED EUROPE? In France and most European countries, only specimens from one of the Argentinean populations were found. This shows that a single population has invaded most countries of Europe, and that it comes from Argentina. HOW DID THE WORMS MOVE? There were stowaways in potted plants transported from Argentina to Europe. These stowaways have now circulated between and within European countries. HOW MUCH OF FRANCE IS INVADED? Three-quarters of the country are already invaded.
