Obama maculatentis is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Geoplaninae.[1] It is found within Argentina.
Obama maculatentis has an elongate body with parallel margins that can reach up to 50 mm in length; the front tip of the body is rounded, while the back is pointed. The dorsum is a black-olive color that pales at the cephalic region. Along the dorsum are two irregular rows of black spots; these spots are generally not very visible to the naked eye, usually only able to be seen in flash photography or following artificial preservation of a specimen. The ventral side of the body is light grey.[2]
