Planaria tanganyika Notes


Young 1976 (citation)- p. 427, notes that "Marcus 1953 (citation), Marcus 1955 (citation) indicated that the material is assignable to Dugesia despite the fact that the species was erected on sexually immature specimens; it may be D. gonocephala but certainly, the description is too inadequate to be certain of this. Ball 1974 (citation) and Kenk 1974 (citation) suggest it probably is a Dugesia sp."
