Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 May 2009
Abstract
Pseudoceros bicolor and Pericelis cata, species of the turbellarian order Polycladida previously listed for regions of the Caribbean Sea, are here recorded for the first time from Brazil. This is also the first record of the genus Pericelis from Brazil. The morphology of the specimens is described and photographs of living forms are given. The present records expand the known geographical range of both species to a transition zone between tropical and subtropical environments.
