digenetic forms — a single anterior and a single posterior sucker ; but 

 in some of the Digendica the posterior sucker is wanting. Adhesive 

 papilla on the dorsal or ventral surface may supplement the 

 adhesive action of the suckers (Fig. 199, B.). In the Monogenetica 

 the suckers are often more numerous ; in the family Gyrodadylidce

(Fig. 200, A) there is no anterior sucker, but at the posterior end 

 one or two discs armed with hooks; in the Polystomece (Fig. 200,

 several hooks ; in the Temnocephalea (Fig. 201) there is no 

 anterior sucker, but the anterior end develops a row (two only in 

 Scutariella) of adhesive tentacles, while in Adinodactylella
