Coleocephalus is a genus of land planarians that currently contains a single species, Coleocephalus fuscus, from the Enderby Island, New Zealand. [1]
The genus Coleocephalus is characterized by an anterior end that is curved downwards and partially covers an oval glandular area on the ventral surface. This glandular area has a folded epithelium with gland cells and openings of glands from the mesenchyme. [1] The copulatory apparatus has adenodactyls and a penis papilla. [2]
