Choeradoplana Riutortae
''Choeradoplana'' is a genus of land planarians found in South America. Description Species of the genus ''Choeradoplana'' are characterized by the presence of a cephalic retractor muscle associated with cephalic glands, forming a cephalic musculo-glandular organ in a way similar to the one found in the genera ''Luteostriata'' and '' Issoca''. The head of ''Choeradoplana'' is highly rolled backwards and the ventral area thus visible has two "cushions" formed by the musculo-glandular organ.Ogren, R. E. and Kawakatsu, M. (1990). ''Index to the species of the family Geoplanidae (Turbellaria, Tricladida, Terricola) Part I: Geoplaninae.'' Bulletin of Fujis Women's College. 29: 79-166. This peculiar head shape makes it easy to identify a species as belonging to this genus. Etymology The name ''Choeradoplana'' comes from Greek word ''χοιράς'' ( scrofula) and the Latin word ''plana'' (flat) due to the two cushions on the ventral side of the head that resemble the neck swelling ...

Choeradoplana Iheringi
''Choeradoplana iheringi'' is a species of land planarian in the subfamily Geoplaninae found in Brazil. Description ''Choeradoplana iheringi'' is a small to medium-sized land planarian up to in length when crawling. The dorsum varies from light to medium brown covered by spots of a darker color. A thin median longitudinal stripe may appear in some specimens, formed by the absence of spots on the middle of the body. The venter is light brown. The anterior is constantly rolled backwards due to the presence of a cephalic retractor muscle and has two cushions on the ventral side, separated by a longitudinal groove. The numerous eyes are distributed marginally along the whole body, except for the apex of the anterior end, where they are absent. Externally, the darker specimens of ''C. iheringi'' are very similar to the related species '' Choeradoplana benyai'', with which they co-occur in southern Brazil. Distribution ''Choeradoplana iheringi'' is a relatively common species ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
