Sphalloplana (Sphalloplana) kansensis Hyman, 1945 | May 18, 1942 | | | specimen from Dr. Leslie Hubricht AMNH no. 311-313. Although 'taken in a spring, this species is undoubtedly a cave planarian for it lacks eyes and has the typical aspect of othe Kenkiidae.' |
Sphalloplana (Sphalloplana) kansensis Hyman, 1945 | June 12, 1964 | | | one specimen collected by Russell M. Norton. Kenk checked this location in 1967 and 1970 with no planarians. Also checked in 1973, no results. |
