List Of Non-marine Molluscs Of Andorra
The non-marine molluscs of Andorra are a part of the fauna of Andorra. That country is land-locked and therefore it has no marine molluscs, only land and freshwater species, including snails, slugs and freshwater bivalves.

Deroceras Reticulatum
''Deroceras reticulatum'', common names the "grey field slug" and "grey garden slug", is a species of small air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Agriolimacidae. This species is an important agricultural pest. Distribution ''Deroceras reticulatum'' is native to Europe, North Africa and the Atlantic Islands.Horsák M., Juřičková L. & Picka J. (2013). ''Měkkýši České a Slovenské republiky. Molluscs of the Czech and Slovak Republics''. Kabourek, Zlín, 264 pp. (in Czech and English). It occurs widely in Europe, but is more rare and restricted to cultivated fields in the southeast, particularly in the Balkans, and is probably absent from Greece and the Bulgarian mountains. In the north and central European lowlands, Great Britain, and Ireland, it is probably the most widely occurring slug. In northern Scandinavia it is scarce, and is mainly found as a synanthrope.

Arion Lusitanicus
''Arion lusitanicus'', also known by its common name Portuguese slug, is a species of air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Arionidae. Distribution ''Arion lusitanicus'' is endemic to forests of the western Lisbon Region (such as the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park or the Arrábida Natural Park) in Portugal. Description In slugs it is often difficult to establish good criteria for identifying species using external features or internal features, as colouration can be quite variable, and the rather plastic anatomy makes diagnostic anatomical features difficult to establish. It is a rather large (up to 80 mm long) slug of reddish-brown colour. There are two light brown bands on the dorsum and mantle, the right band passes above the pneumostome. The margin of the foot is reddish or yellowish with dark transverse lines reaching into the lateral parts of the sole. The sole is olive greyish with darker marginal zones. The tentacles are ...

Boettgerillidae
''Boettgerilla'' is a genus of air-breathing land slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the family Boettgerillidae. The generic name ''Boettgerilla'' is named after the German malacologist Oskar Boettger. Taxonomy ''Boettgerilla'' is the only genus in the family Boettgerillidae. Wiktor A. (1989). ''Limacoidea et Zonitoidea nuda. Slimaki pomrowioksztaltne (Gastropoda: Stylommatophora)''. Fauna Poloniae 12, Polska Akademia Nauk, Warszawa, 208 pp., page 134-137. This family has no subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Boettgerillidae Van Goethem, 1972 is not an available name, because it has no diagnosis. Distribution Distribution of Boettgerillidae include western Palearctic.

Limax Maximus
''Limax maximus'' (literally, "biggest slug"), known by the common names great grey slug and leopard slug, is a species of slug in the family Limacidae, the keeled slugs.Marshall, B. (2014). Limax maximus Linnaeus, 1758. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=819992 on 2014-11-06 It is among the largest keeled slugs, ''Limax cinereoniger'' being the largest. ''Limax maximus'' is the type species of the genus ''Limax''. The adult slug measures 10–20 cm (4–8 in) in length and is generally a light greyish or grey-brown with darker spots and blotches, although the coloration and exact patterning of the body of this slug species is quite variable. This species has a very unusual and distinctive mating method, where the pair of slugs use a thick thread of mucus to hang suspended in the air from a tree branch or other structure. Although native to Europe, this species has been accidentally introduced ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lehmannia Valentiana
''Ambigolimax valentianus'' (also known as ''Lehmannia valentiana'') is a species of air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Limacidae. Description '' External appearance does not reliably distinguish ''Ambigolimax valentianus'' from other members of the genus, such as '' A. parvipenis'', with which it may co-occur. Like other members of the Limacidae, it has a pointed tail and the pneumostome lies in the posterior half of the mantle. Often the most obvious character of an ''Ambigolimax'' slug is the two parallel, sharply defined, dark lines along the mantle, sometimes with a thicker less well defined line lying between. Two similar lines may lie more posteriorly along the back either side of the midline, but all these lines may be faint or even absent in some individuals. Others have further dots and mottled patches of darker pigment. The dorsal coloration is most often pinkish brown, but sometimes dull yellowish or grey, and all shade ...

Lehmannia Marginata
''Lehmannia marginata'' is a species of air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Limacidae. Sometimes classified in the genus ''Limax'', the species is distinct in its ecology, and its nearly transparent body. It is a medium-sized species, rarely exceeding 12 cm in body length. The body is fairly long and narrow, with a marked keel. The keel looks lighter than the remaining body against the darker innards.
