Abstract How accurately can citizen science participants identify species, and can the information they provide be used to calculate accurate estimates of species richness, abundance and diversity measures? In this paper, we address these questions using data from a citizen science project assessing slug species diversity in gardens. Sixty participants

We determined the habitat occupancy and detection probability of blue ground beetles C. intricatus, which is a threatened species of carabid in the United Kingdom about which little is known. Occupancy was higher where there was greater availability of decayed deadwood and mature broadleaved trees, with detection more likely when there was high ...

Limax (Limax) seticus n. sp. from high mountains in Nepal (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Limacidae) [PDF]
Limax seticus n. sp. from Nepal belongs to a genus whose distribution range was believed to be limited to the Western Palaearctic, the ranges of other genera of the family Limacidae being also situated far from the type locality. This alpine site (the highest situated locality known for slugs) on the foreland of a glacier and the natural character of ...

Effects of Temperature on the Development and Longevity of the Gray Field Slug, Deroceras reticulatum Müller (Stylommatophora: Limacidae) [PDF]
The egg size and weight of the gray field slug, Deroceras reticulatum Muller, was mm and 3.3 mg at , respectively. Its weight increased from newly laid eggs to adults for 17 weeks at four temperature regimes and was heaviest at , followed by 24, 16 and .

Abstract Control of terrestrial slugs and snails by contact molluscicides acquired passively by crawling animals is potentially more efficient than the bait-delivery method currently used. An attempt was made to exploit the known molluscicidal activity of some common metals as contact-action poisons by comparing their rate of uptake and toxicity in ...
