The Slugs of Britain and Ireland: Undetected and Undescribed Species Increase a Well-Studied, Economically Important Fauna by More Than 20%
The Slugs of Britain and Ireland: Undetected and Undescribed Species Increase a Well-Studied, Economically Important Fauna by More Than 20% Ben Rowson1*, Roy Anderson2, James A. Turner1, William O. C. Symondson3 1 National Museum of Wales, Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom, 2 Conchological Society of Great Britain & Ireland, Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom, 3 Cardiff School of Biosciences, Cardiff University, Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom Abstract The slugs of Britain and Ireland form a well-studied fauna of economic importance. They include many widespread European species that are introduced elsewhere (at least half of the 36 currently recorded British species are established in North America, for example). To test the contention that the British and Irish fauna consists of 36 species, and to verify the identity of each, a species delimitation study was conducted based on a geographically wide survey. Comparisons between mitochondrial DNA (COI, 16S), nuclear DNA (ITS-1) and morphology were investigated with reference to interspecific hybridisation. Species delimitation of the fauna produced a primary species hypothesis of 47 putative species. This was refined to a secondary species hypothesis of 44 species by integration with morphological and other data. Thirty six of these correspond to the known fauna (two species in Arion subgenus Carinarion were scarcely distinct and Arion (Mesarion) subfuscus consisted of two near-cryptic species). However, by the same criteria a further eight previously undetected species (22% of the fauna) are established in Britain and/or Ireland. Although overlooked, none are strictly morphologically cryptic, and some appear previously undescribed. Most of the additional species are probably accidentally introduced, and several are already widespread in Britain and Ireland (and thus perhaps elsewhere). -

Slugs: a Guide to the Invasive and Native Fauna of California ANR Publication 8336 2
University of California Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources http://anrcatalog.ucdavis.edu Publication 8336 • January 2009 SLUGA Guide to the InvasiveS and Native Fauna of California RORY J. MC DONNELL, Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside; TimOTHY D. PAINE, Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside; and MICHAEL J. GOrmALLY, Applied Ecology Unit, Centre for Environmental Science, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland Introduction Slugs have long been regarded worldwide as severe pests of agricultural and horticultural production, attacking a vast array of crops (reviewed by South [1992] and Godan [1983]). Species such as Deroceras reticulatum (Müller1), Arion hortensis d’Audebard de Férussac, and Tandonia budapestensis (Hazay) are among the most pestiferous (South 1992) and have increased their ranges as humans have continued their colonization of the planet. Slugs have also been implicated in the transmission of many plant pathogens, such as Alternaria brassicicola Schw., the causal agent of brassica dark leaf spot (Hasan and Vago 1966). In addition, they have been implicated as vectors of Angiostrongylus cantonensis (Chen), which can cause the potentially lethal eosinophilic meningo-encephalitis in humans (Aguiar, Morera, and Pascual 1981; Lindo et al. 2004) and Angiostrongylus costaricensis Morera and Céspedes, which causes abdominal angiostrongyliasis (South 1992). Recent evidence also indicates that slugs vector Campylobacter spp. and Escherichia coli (Migula), which cause food poisoning and may have been partially responsible for recent, highly publicized massive recalls of contaminated spinach and other salad crops grown in California (Raloff 2007, Sproston et al. 2006). 1Slug taxonomy follows Anderson (2005) throughout.

The Carnivorous Shelled Slug Family Testacellidae in Essex SIMON TAYLOR Fiddlesticks, 44 Strawberry Lane, Tolleshunt Knights, Essex CO5 0RX [email protected]
The carnivorous shelled slug family Testacellidae in Essex SIMON TAYLOR Fiddlesticks, 44 Strawberry Lane, Tolleshunt Knights, Essex CO5 0RX [email protected] Introduction The family Testacellidae Cuvier, 1800 is a very characteristic yet relatively rarely encountered family of slugs, with a rather unusual biology. The slug form, that of a land snail which has lost the shell, has evolved independently several times amongst the terrestrial gastropods, the principal benefit of which is considered to be the resultant ability to access very restricted spaces. In the Testacellidae a rather flat, vestigial external shell remains covering the mantle which, again somewhat unusually against the conventional slug body plan, is found at the hind end of the animal. The body, up to 120mm long when fully extended, varies in colour from white to shades of grey, orange and brown, with two prominent dorsal groves running the length of the body, converging in the vicinity of the shell. The foot colour can be pale cream through yellow/ orange to salmon pink. There are four head tentacles. Most terrestrial gastropods are herbivorous or detritivores but the Testacellidae are carnivorous, thought to prey mostly on earthworms and other molluscs (Quick 1960), the usual rasping radular teeth having evolved to become long and sharp. The feeding behaviour was particularly well described and figured by Essex Field Club Member Wilfred Mark Webb in 1893, based on specimens found in Buckhurst Hill by Mr H.C. Snell and published in the Essex Naturalist (Cole 1893). Consequent to their feeding habits, the slugs often inhabit gardens and allotments where a plentiful food supply exists, although they are rarely seen as they are primarily nocturnal, subterranean creatures and, like many predators of large prey items, short bursts of activity are followed by long periods of rest, particularly if conditions are cold or dry (Kerney & Cameron 1979). -

Most examined plots belong to young forests; Mediterranean in particular, three age classes were considered (class 1, < 22 years; class 3, 38–56 years; class 5, > 77 years). Microhabitat Twenty-seven species and 2433 individuals were recorded. Box plots showed that forest age did not seem to be a key factor for land snail species richness and abundance at least in the time range of examined forests. However, this may not be true, if real old-growth forests are considered. No differences between evergreen and deciduous forest were found too. With regard to species composition, Non-metric multidimensional scaling demonstrated an assemblage of species widespread in all forest age classes, while Indicator Species Analysis failed to identify any species as indicator for any age category. -
