Schmidtea is a freshwater triclad genus widely used in regeneration and developmental studies.[2][3]

Until 1991 Schmidtea was considered a Dugesia subgenus, then it was upgraded to the genus rank.[4]

gollark: You're effectively trusting thousands of people and whoever else they send data to.

gollark: Why?

gollark: Probably billions.

gollark: Do you REALLY trust THOUSANDS of Google employees and also probably the NSA?

gollark: Google is thousands of random people with different motives, although you're somewhat safer because most of them *probably* won't care that much.
