Description
As in other genera of the family Dendrocoelidae, species of Bdellocephala have an anterior adhesive organ. However, differently from other dendrocoelids, species of Bdellocephala lack a well-developed penis papilla in the male copulatory apparatus, which is uncommon in freshwater planarians.[3]

gollark: Also `codePointAt`.
gollark: Oh, you got it to work now, neat. Consider `fromCodePoint` instead of `fromCharCode` due to something something UTF-16 surrogates.
gollark: It *is* inevitable.
