The flatworm Macrostomum hystrix isn't exciting to look at. Its diet of microalgae doesn't raise any eyebrows, and you probably wouldn't even notice one if you came across it in its native habitat. But in the bedroom, these flatworms take kink to a whole new level: when they can't find a partner, they will stab themselves in the head with their needle-like penises and inject sperm to self-fertilize.

Just read a most amazing fact. Not only can you train a #flatworm - if you cut off it’s head, it will grow a new head, complete with #brain *and* retain its memory. Every day’s a school day that’s for sure. Btw if you haven’t read #MerlinSheldrake ‘s #EntangledLife about how important the networks made by #fungi are I heartily recommend

Hello Mastodon. I'm naturalist [but with own small lab] and my biggest interest are freshwater planarians. Let's give this platform a fair chance. Here, have this bunch of Dugesia gonocephala from Gratzen mountain. #planarian #flatworm
Today I learned of the existence of this...the "hammerhead #flatworm". I want one. How flipping cool are they!?

Nice case of sexual conflict in #hermaphrodite #flatworm : giving #sperm is far more important than receiving some from the partner. #science #biology #evolution #animalbehaviour #sexualselection
