Weissius

Etymology
The genus was named for Annie Weiss, a planarian worker, in honor of her contributions to knowledge of Australian freshwater planarians. The specific epithet is derived from Latin, meaning "spacious duct" (capax + ductus), in reference to the expanded anterior section of the species' oviducts.
