Placobdella costata is a leech specific to freshwater turtle Emys orbicularis. Both genera are native to North America and have co-evolved and undergone dispersion through the Palearctic. The leech is present throughout the Mediterranean area, always associated with E. orbicularis. Their only known presence in the Iberian Peninsula is in the north and center of the peninsula. Here we present the first description of the leech in southern Spain (Andalusia) in association with a small fragmented population of fresh-water turtles in which E. orbicularis and Mauremys leprosa coexist. Unusually, the leech was found attached to the carapace of a male M. leprosa.

The water bodies formed in forest complexes are characterised by a significant degree of isolation from other aquatic environments as well as from urban agglomerations. In industrial areas, they are refuges of biological diversity. The long-term ecological research carried out in woodland ponds has allowed us to identify a new site of the occurrence of Placobdella costata (F. Müller) (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae) in Poland, the fourth in the southern part of the country. Furthermore, ecological information about the habitat and accompanying freshwater leeches are given.
