Glossiphonia elegans (Verrill 1872) Common names: Brook leech or snail leech General distribution: Holarctic (Figures 2 A, 4A, Tables 1,2). Newfoundland: Survey: Site 1 (CMNA 2006–0002), Site 10 (CMNA 2006–0005), Site 14 (CMNA 2006–0008), Site 17 (CMNA 2006–0012), and Site 18 (CMNA 2006–0013); Museum specimens: CMNA 1987–0467; Literature: Pawlowski (1948) as Glossiphonia complanata at Deer Lake; Pickavance (1971) as Glossiphonia sp. in Rennies River, St. John’s; Davies (1973) as G. complanata at Rocky Harbour. Labrador: Museum specimens: CMNA 1988–0126. The record by Pickavance is questionable since Glossiphonia heteroclita was a name sometimes used for Alboglossiphonia heteroclita. ... : Published as part of Madill, Jacqueline & Hovingh, Peter, 2007, Freshwater leech (Annelida: Hirudinida) distribution in the Canadian Province of Newfoundland and Labrador and adjacent regions: check-list, new records, new pigmentation forms, and Pleistocene refugia, pp. 1-21 in Zootaxa 1657 on page 6, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.179881 ...
