Abstract

Freshwater leeches of the genus π»π‘’π‘šπ‘–π‘π‘™π‘’π‘π‘ π‘–π‘  VejdovskΓ½, 1884 were collected in Hokkaido, Japan, and identified as 𝐻. π‘ π‘β„Žπ‘Ÿπ‘’π‘›π‘π‘˜π‘– Bolotov, Klass, Bespalaya, Konopleva, Kondakov & Vikhrev, 2019. This marks the first recorded occurrence of the species beyond the Eurasian continent. The 𝐻. π‘ π‘β„Žπ‘Ÿπ‘’π‘›π‘π‘˜π‘– specimen from Hokkaido displays a distinct mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequence variant, represented by a single terminal in the phylogeny, suggesting that the local population is indigenous to this region.
