Abstract
1. The catecholamine content in six endemic turbellarians of Lake Baikal was examined with high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). 2. The planarians Archicotylus sp., Baikalobia sp., Bdellocephala angarensis, Rimacephalus arecepta, Sorocelis nigrofasciata and the lecithoepitheliat Geocentrophora wagini were analysed. 3. Dopa and dopamine (DA) were detected in all species and noradrenaline was detected in all species except Archicotylus. DA dominates in all species. 4. Neither adrenaline nor the DA-metabolite DOPAC were detected.
