Note: In the mouth of bloodsucking leeches are three
convergent, serrated jaws, moved by strong muscles. By

the skin, through which the leech sucks blood till it
is gorged, and then drops off. The stomach has large
pouches on each side to hold the blood. The common

for drawing blood. See Bdelloidea. Hirudinea, and
