Abstract / Notes
The common triclad of Lake Titicaca is identified as Dugesia festai (Borelli) 1898 and a descr. is given. Contrary to Beauchamp, this sp. is regarded as distinct from Planaria aurita Kennel. Bipalium kewense is recorded from outdoor localities in Argentina and Peru. Rhynchodemus graetzi is descr. from Panama and compared with other Rhynchodemus spp. of the region. A new rhynchodemid genus INCAPORA with sp. weyrauchi is created for a worm from Peru having 2 ducts leading from the ventral surface behind the gonopore to the posterior intestinal rami; a transverse anastomosis between these rami connects with the common ovovitelline duct
