We collected a total of 10,723 individuals, included in 86 families (Table 3), distributed in five classes: i) Insecta (eight families belong to Ephemeroptera, nine to Odonata, one to Plecoptera, 12 to Hemiptera, 10 to Trichoptera, one to Megaloptera, 14 to Coleoptera, 16 to Diptera, and one to Lepidoptera), ii) Maxillopoda (two families belong to order Decapoda, one to Amphipoda, and one to Isopoda); iii) Gastropoda (one family belong to Unionida order, one to Veneroida, two to Basommatophora, four to Neotaenioglossa; iv) Turbellaria (one family belonging to
Tricladida order); and v) Acari (the order Hydrachnidia).

Bipalium adventitium Hyman, 1943 (Turbellaria:
Tricladida: Terricola) is an exotic terrestrial planarian that feeds on earthworms (Dindal, 1970; Ogren, 1981) and is invading North America (Hyman, 1954; Ogren, 1984; Ducey and Noce, 1998).
We studied male allocation in the flatworm Dugesia polychroa (
Tricladida, Platyhelminthes), from which diploid sexuality as well as several types of polyploid parthenogenesis have been described (Benazzi 1957).
Redescription and a new name for the blue land planarian Geoplana vaga Hyman now considered conspecific with Caenoplana coerulea Moseley from Australia (Turbellaria:
