And that’s a wrap! We hope everyone had as enjoyable and productive a time at ISFB XVI as we did. Thanks for attending, and we’ll see you again in Sant Feliu in 2029!

Ronald Sluys also delivered a tribute to Masaharu Kawakatsu (1929-2025), renowned for his career-long contributions to planarian taxonomy and ecology.

Day 4 of ISFB XVI was devoted to taxonomy and systematics. Great talks capturing flatworm diversity by Lukas Schärer, Miquel Vila-Farré, Alejandro Catalá Jimenez, Marta Riutort (@riutortlab.bsky.social), Aoi Tsuyuki, Srishti Arya, Vitor Milanese, and Marta Álvarez-Presas (@martaalvarez.bsky.social).

Planarian flatworms have amazing regenerative abilities. After being sliced in half, wounds close within minutes, new eyes appear in days, and by day seven, the regenerated body is behaving like a functioning flatworm. @stowersinstitute.bsky.social bigpicturescience.org/episodes/wor...

Scientists have measured in number of cells the smallest fragment of a sliced flatworm that can regenerate into an entire animal. Learn that number and how these worms skillfully use stem cells to regenerate those tubular bodies. bigpicturescience.org/episodes/wor...

Flatworm so green it could've been easy to miss among the moss ... but because this observer spotted it, we all get to experience these spectacular photos! There are currently only 6 iNaturalist observations of this species, Caenoplana tenuis.

Even your older nature photos can help scientists today! As long as you know when and where you took the photos, you can post your nature sightings on iNaturalist anytime — and they'll still contribute to science and conservation. Got anything in your camera roll to share? 👀

A close-up photo of bright green moss. White text reads "Your old nature photos can help scientists today."

A photo of a small garden snail perched at the center of a yellow flower. White text reads "As long as you know the dates and locations where you took them, you can post your older photos of wild nature to iNaturalist! Older records of nature can (and do) contribute to ongoing science and conservation efforts — just like new ones do. What's in your camera roll?"
