Pasipha paucilineata is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Geoplaninae.[1] It is found within Brazil.
Pasipha paucilineata has an elongated body with parallel margins; it has a rounded anterior tip and a pointed posterior tip. It can reach up to 78 mm in length. The dorsum is a dark brown or black color, with a greyish stripe running down the middle. The ventral side of the body is a pale gray color. The forked, tubular shape of the prostatic vesicle's proximal portion and its lateral displacement distinguish it from other members of Pasipha.[2]
