Solution

The correct option is B Hirudinaria
A suctorial mouth is adapted for sucking. Leeches have a distinct head end with a mouth consisting of sharp cutting beaks located within the head sucker. Their rear sucker is larger and uses to anchor the leech in place.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Hirudinaria'
