Like other flatworms in the order Polycladida, aside from the two stout tentacles on its head, this species has a remarkably flat, fragile, ovaloid body. As a cotylean flatworm, Praestheceraeus bellostriatus is brightly colored, though unlike its tropical relatives it inhabits relatively cold water.
This flatworm is native to the western seaboard of North America, its range extending from Sitka in Alaska to Baja California peninsula in Mexico. It is found on the lower shore and in the shallow sub-littoral zone, under rocks, on pilings, on the fouled hulls of boats and among mussels and rock-boring bivalves.

The portion of the body closest to the prey is the portion the flatworm utilizes to grip the prey and ingest into its midventral mouth. [1] If the flatworm has been starved, it will lunge at the prey, grip onto it, and quickly ingest it. [1] However, if the flatworm is fed daily, it attacks normally and ingests at a slower rate. [1]
The most striking feature uniting all neodermatans is that the ciliated epidermis (typical of most flatworms) is cast off in adult worms, being replaced by a syncytium called tegument or neodermis. Other characters found in all neodermatans are related to the anatomy of the protonephridium and the rootlets of epidermal locomotory cilia .
