β¦ Synopsis
Photoreceptor structure and function in the Platyhelminthes has traditionally been treated separately in the Turbellaria on one hand and the conventional parasitic classes on the other. In this paper, an attempt is made to bring together data from the literature and to highlight deficiencies and areas where a more integrated approach would be beneficial . This is done with particular reference to the endosymbiont genus Paravortex which belongs to the Turbellaria but which functionally has more similarities to the parasitic platyhelminths especially with regard to the host-finding requirement of the larval stages .
