Abstract
Cover illustration. Prolecithophora is a poorly studied taxon of flatworms. In this issue of the Journal of Morphology, Grosbusch and coauthors (pp. 574‐587) report about a study of the serotonergic nervous system of six different prolecithophoran species using fluorescent immunocytochemical techniques. The topographic anatomy of the nervous system is discussed in a phylogenetic framework. The cover image is a depth‐color coded projection of an immunostaining of the serotonergic nervous system of the prolecithophoran flatworm Acmostomum dioicum, showing a trapezoid brain with unstained eyes near the anterior end (up) and the orthogon with prominent longitudinal nerve cords and transversal commissures. Blue is more dorsal, yellow more ventral.image
