 Comments
       
  Comment: Brusca et al. (2016:376) note that the 'internal classification of flatworms has been subjected to frequent revisions', and that we 'can expect continued reorganization of the flatworms in the near future.' Nevertheless, they cite two completely separate studies of flatworm phylogeny from 2015 that 'resulted in nearly the same phylogeny', and presented a classification based primarily on those recent works. ITIS is following that classification here, pending further revisions
