Othelosoma joburgi, the sickgreen flatworm, is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Microplaninae.
[1] Othelosoma joburgi was described in 2004 by H. D. Jones of the University of Manchester, from type specimens found in Roodepoort, South Africa.
The specific epithet is derived from Jo'burg, a colloquial name for Johannesburg and by extension the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality, of which Roodepoort is part of.
The defining feature of Othelosoma joburgi is its "sick-green" color, which is nearly uniform all across the dorsal side of the body.
