Info

Pseudoceros canadensis Hyman, 1953

This species is a intertidal flatworm. Unfortunatela, there are no mor information available.

Reproduction:
The whirlworm can reproduce both asexually and sexually. This species is hermaphroditic, meaning that it has both male and female reproductive organs. When two whirlworms reproduce, they fight to decide who will be fertilized and who will be the fertilizer. The winner gets to act as the male individual and fertilize the other.

Synonym:
Procerodes canadensis
