Australian flatworm Australoplana sanguinea came to my garden in potted plant(s) from a nursery, possibly in imported stock.
They established for a decade or so, but now seem to have died out again fortunately.

Yes, much more likely to have come into the garden via a plant pot. It's how we got what we called the New Zealand Flatworm and various other pests, animal and plant based :-\ :'( We no longer have the flatworm, thankfully.
