Paraba tata is a species of land planarian belonging to the subfamily Geoplaninae.[1] It is found within Brazil.
Paraba tata has a body about 22 mm in length with parallel margins, a rounded anterior, and a pointed posterior. The dorsum is a dark orange-brown color, with orange body margins. Across the length of the dorsum, aside from the extremities, there is a narrow clear gray stripe. The ventral side of the body is an ivory color.[2]
The specific epithet is derived from a Tupi language word meaning "fire"; this is in reference to the dorsum's orangeish color.
P. tata is currently only known from type specimens found in Intervales State Park, near the municipality of Ribeirão Grande, São Paulo, Brazil.
