Description
Obama ficki is a large land planarian with a broad and flat leaf-like body. The largest specimens reach more than 20 cm in length. The color of the dorsum is composed by a greyish-brown background covered with numerous fine black spots. The ventral side is orange.[1]
The several eyes of O. ficki are distributed marginally in the first centimeters of the body and posteriorly become dorsal, occupying around 30% of the body width at the median third of the body.[1]
Distribution
The habitat of O. ficki includes seasonal and moist forests in northeast Rio Grande do Sul and east Santa Catarina, southern Brazil.[2]
