Most flatworms, including Procotyla fluviatilis, are predators. They eat protists (including Amoeba, Paramecium, and Euglena), rotifers, nematodes, small crustaceans, aquatic worms, and other soft-bodied animals. They also feed on dead animal matter and larger animals that are injured.
The types of organs and organ systems vary among the groups of flatworms. Most have a nervous system, sometimes with a type of processing center called a ganglion, kind of a tiny brain.. Most have a muscle system, although no skeleton - the body, with all of the cells connected to all of the others, gives resistance to the muscles.
