Anzoplanini is a tribe of land planarians in the subfamily Rhynchodeminae.[1]
Description
[edit]The tribe Anzoplanini contains land planarians with dorsoventral testes, a condition that in land planarians is considered intermediate between a primitive ventral condition and a derivate dorsal condition. The mesenchymal musculature contains longitudinal fibers forming either a ventral plate or a ring around the intestine.[2]
Genera
[edit]Currently, the tribe Anzoplanini comprises the following genera:
- Anzoplana Winsor, 2006[2]
- Marionfyfea Winsor, 2011[3] (replacement name for Fyfea Winsor, 2006,[2] preoccupied)
