Rhabdocoela, Tricladida, Prolecithophora and other Turbellarians were also found from the water samples. The country brook flows into Heyuan river section, Dongjiang. However, no turbellarian was found in this river section.

The spheroidshaped false vesicula seminalis (fvs) is located at the mid-ventral line at the posterior margin of female antrum (fa), and has a short ductus connecting vesicula seminalis (vs) at the right posterior side. Vesicula seminalis (vs) is spherical shaped and located at the right edge posterior 2/5 position of false vesicula seminalis (fvs). The anterior part of vesicula seminalis (vs) connects the vesicula granulorum (vg) via a short ductus.
