1972 Memoirs of the National Museum of Victoria  
Distinct in having 16 5-annulate somites, salivary gland papillae, elongate cylindrical ejaculatory bulbs and a simple fusiform vagina with a long vaginal duct. Adequate systematizahon gives evidence of diversity in leech faunas, not the widespread uniformity associated with dispersal by passive transport.
