\"\"Slug, Deroceras invadens<\/em>\u00a0(Pul.: Agriolimacidae)\u00a0\u00a0 Ian Cooper<\/p>\n

Ian provides the following notes abstracted from from iNaturalist concerning the name and identification of this slug.<\/p>\n

Deroceras invadens<\/em>\u00a0– Until 2011, this widely distributed species was known as Deroceras panormitanum<\/em>, and earlier as Deroceras caruanae<\/em>\u00a0or Agriolimax caruanae<\/em>, but Reise et al. (2011)[2] showed that these names refer to a distinct species of similar external appearance known at that time only from Sicily and Malta. Consequently, although the more widespread species was already well known, it then had to be redescribed under the new name of D. invadens<\/em>. Genetic evidence has indicated that D. invadens<\/em>\u00a0is native in southern Italy.<\/p>\n
