Choeradoplana bocaina

Choeradoplana bocaina is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Geoplaninae.

[1] It is found in areas within the Atlantic Forest in Brazil, such as Serra da Bocaina National Park.

It has a slender body; the cephalic region of the worm is rolled up when it is creeping or resting.

The base dorsal color of the body is a yellowish-brown color, with several dark brownish spots of varying size; the spots are more concentrated paramedianly, forming irregular longitudinal stripes.

[2] It is distinguished from other members of Choeradoplana by its dark pigmented dorsal spots, a bell-shaped pharynx, the extra-bulbar portion of the prostatic vesicle being proximally two-forked and distally dish-shaped, and a narrow posterior section of the female atrium.
