Description

The subfamily Geoplaninae was initially defined by Ogren and Kawakatsu (1990)[3] for land planarians which have a broad creeping sole, mouth in the second half of the body, dorsal testes, subepithelial longitudinal musculature well developed and parenchymal longitudinal musculature absent or not well developed. None of these characters is exclusive, however, and cannot be considered a synapomorphy of the group. Nevertheless, phylogenetic studies have revealed that Geoplaninae is indeed a monophyletic group.[1][4][5]

Genera

Currently the land planarians in the subfamily Geoplaninae are grouped in 26 genera:[2]

gollark: Its main advantage is just that it is conveniently usable one-handed or while standing up, which the phone plus keyboard is not.
gollark: Compared to my laptop, my phone has significantly worse CPU power, massively worse GPU power, a smaller but equal-resolution and better-color-calibrated screen, much worse IO (a single USB 2 USB-C port versus five USB ports, a headphone jack, Ethernet, DP/HDMI, and power), much better battery life but worse battery capacity, and worse software.
gollark: 7" is a small tablet or very large phone.
gollark: Android brings only suffering.
gollark: Just carry the laptop. I don't see the problem. If you have the keyboard you probably have a bag of some sort.
