These flat worms are smaller than planarians, I found them in freshwater temporary pond.
With my bests.
The 4 brownish worms could be Mesostoma ehrenbergi or a similar species. The green one with zoochlorellae might be a Typhloplanidae (e.g. Typhloplana viridata or Castrada viridis).
Best, Ulfert
Yes they look like Mesostoma, but I found Mesostoma ehrenbergi in a temporary pond, and Mesostoma tetragonum in the river Seine.

They are both larger than these flat worms.
Anyway, they are certainly Typhloplanidae, and may be Rhynchomesostoma.
