Obama ficki is a large land planarian with a broad and flat leaf-like body.

The color of the dorsum is composed by a greyish-brown background covered with numerous fine black spots.

[1] The habitat of O. ficki includes seasonal and moist forests in northeast Rio Grande do Sul and east Santa Catarina, southern Brazil.

Due to its large size, O. ficki, when catching up to prey, is able to easily cover the gastropod with its body to immobilize it.

When this is done, O. ficki can evert its pharynx and attach it to the prey, crushing it into smaller pieces before sucking it into the intestine.
