Proales sordida Gosse, 1886
Proales cf sordida, ventral view of a specimen from (1); optical median section. Because of the displaced cerebral eyespot (to the right side) this species may be confused with Proales fallaciosa or Proales decipiens. In contrast to P. fallaciosa this species is lacking the appendage between the toes. In contrast to both species the toes of P. sordida are more bulbous.
