bailarín mexicano
The other species in the Pseudoceros genus which have common names in Spanish are always named "bailarines", so if we're going to use a common name for P. mexicanus, it must be "bailarín" as well. Since the specific name is mexicanus, that's very easy to do: "bailarín mexicano".
Compare with:
"... ocho especies representantes, de las cuales, dos son platihelmintos y nemerteos (Pseudoceros bedfordi o bailarín español y Baseodiscus mexicanus o gusano cebra...".
