For this #wormwednesday evening we have Prorhynchus, a freshwater flatworm that uses its penis stylet (here near the front) as a harpoon to catch prey. The stylet injects poison into the prey. The mouth and stylet share opening - further back the pharynx can be seen.

Anaperus tvaerminnensis is a voracious predator feeding on various small Invertebrates including other Acoela, as can be seen in this photo. The statocyst of the prey is still visible. #WormWednesday
