E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]. *Corresponding author. Received 20 November 2014 │ Accepted 25 December 2014 │ Published online 8 January 2015. Abstract In this study 13 leech species from Tunisia are listed. They belong to 2 orders, 2 suborders, 4 families and 11 genera. The paper includes also data about hosts and habitats, distribution in the world and in Tunisia. Faunistic informations on leeches were found in literature and in the results of recent surveys conducted by the authors in the North East and the South of the country. The objectives of this study were to summarize historical and recent taxonomic data, and to propose an identification key for species signalized. This checklist is to be completed, taking into account the hydrobiological network of the country especially the North West region, which may reveal more species in the future. Key words : Hirudinea, Checklist, leeches, geographic distribution, Tunisia, identification key. Introduction Available information on the distribution, taxonomy, and ecology of Tunisian leeches has been scattered throughout various historical (Blanchard 1891, 1908, Megnin 1891, Seurat 1922) as well as recent papers (Ben Ahmed et al. 2008a, 2008b, 2008c, Ben Ahmed & Tekaya 2009, Ben Ahmed et al., 2013, Nesemann & Neubert 1994).
