May 23, 2018 by Enrico de Lazaro
Hammerhead flatworms of the genera Bipalium and Diversibipalium (bipaliines) are giants among land flatworms, reaching length of 3.3 feet (1 m).
These worms are easily distinguished from other land flatworms by the characteristic hammer shape of their head.
Bipaliines have their origin in warm parts of Asia and are invasive species, now widespread worldwide.
