Flatworm(: I love those little guys!
Platyhelminthes is a phylum of invertebrates commonly referred to as flatworms. These organisms are characterized by their flattened bodies and are found in a variety of aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Some notable examples of platyhelminthes include tapeworms and planarians.
Some examples of platyhelminthes, also known as flatworms, include planarians, flukes, and tapeworms. Planarians are free-living flatworms found in freshwater environments. Flukes are parasites that can infect various animals, including humans. Tapeworms are also parasitic and can be found in the intestines of vertebrates.
This is somewhat akin to asking "are birds endangered." Some may be, others aren't. In the specific case of platyhelminthes (flatworms) there are some parasitic ones that we wish were endangered.
