Flatworm about 12mm, underside same colour but slightly lighter. I saw another specimen the same nearby about 8mm but photos were not in focus.

This was found in a very wet boggy area, under a very wet soaked log, not underwater, but sitting on very water soaked ground. The same with the 2nd specimen I found.

I'm quite convinced this is an immature Anzoplana trilineata. I have seen several small specimens almost identical to this one but with stripes a little more visible. The stripes are only just visible on this one.
