Choeradoplana albonigra is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Geoplaninae. It is found in areas within the Atlantic Forest in Brazil, such as the Augusto Ruschi Biological Reserve, Desengano State Park, and the municipality of Teresópolis.
Description.
"Choeradoplana albonigra" is a flatworm around 50–60 cm in length and 2–3 mm in width. It has a slender body with a very thin anterior tip and a pointed posterior tip. The base and ventral color of the body is traffic-white; the dorsal side is covered by a broad graphite-black band that darkens along its margins. In some, but not all, individuals, a thin jet-black stripe runs down the middle of the band. The extremities of the body, anterior and posterior, fade from traffic-white to a slightly orangish color.
It is distinguished from other members of "Choeradoplana" by its notable black band and white body, the extreme thinning of the anterior tip, no visible dilations separating the head from the body, a concave ventral side of the cephalic region lacking glandular cushions, the proximal third of the prostatic vesicle being outside of the penis bulb, a relatively long copulatory apparatus, lack of a penis papilla, and a funnel-shaped female atrium.
Etymology.
The specific epithet of "albonigra" is derived from the Latin roots of "albus" and "nigra", meaning "white" and "black" respectively, likely in reference to the species' characteristic colors.
