Chlamydephorus Purcelli
Purcell's hunter slug, scientific name ''Chlamydephorus purcelli'', is an endangered species of air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Chlamydephoridae. Distribution This species is endemic to Table Mountain in South Africa. The survival of this slug is threatened by habitat loss Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss or habitat reduction) occurs when a natural habitat is no longer able to support its native species. The organisms once living there have either moved elsewhere, or are dead, leading to a decrease ....

Chlamydephorus Burnupi
Burnup's hunter slug (''Chlamydephorus burnupi''), also known as the camel huntingslug is a species of land slug in the family Chlamydephoridae. It is endemic to South Africa, where it is known from the foothills of central Natal Drakensberg to Port St. Johns. Description It is orange to reddish-brown and around 8 cm when extended. It has distinct scalloped keels along the side of its body with a flattened lower dorsal side, in the center of which is the respiratory opening. The body has a hump two-thirds of the way down. Habitat and Ecology It is found under stones or logs in leaf-litter in mist-belt Podocarpus forest. It is known to prey on pill-millipedes, possibly by introducing a toxin that immobilizes them. Snails and earthworms may also be part of its diet. Conservation In June 2000, the species was listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List o ...

Sigmurethra
Sigmurethra is a taxonomic category of air-breathing land snails and slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs. This is an informal group which includes most land snails and slugs. The two strong synapomorphies of Sigmurethra are a long pedal gland placed beneath a membrane and retractile tentacles. Several families in this group contain species of snails and slugs that create love darts. Sigmurethra are known from the Cretaceous to the Recent periods. Taxonomy 2005 Taxonomy In the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005, Sigmurethra is an "Informal Group", a subsection of the Stylommatophora.Bouchet P. & Rocroi J.-P.

Pulmonate
Pulmonata or pulmonates is an informal group (previously an order, and before that, a subclass) of snails and slugs characterized by the ability to breathe air, by virtue of having a pallial lung instead of a gill, or gills. The group includes many land and freshwater families, and several marine families. The taxon Pulmonata as traditionally defined was found to be polyphyletic in a molecular study per Jörger ''et al.'', dating from 2010. Pulmonata are known from the Carboniferous period to the present. Pulmonates have a single atrium and kidney, and a concentrated symmetrical nervous system. The mantle cavity is on the right side of the body, and lacks gills, instead being converted into a vascularised lung. Most species have a shell, but no operculum, although the group does also include several shell-less slugs. Pulmonates are hermaphroditic, and some groups possess love darts.

Animalia
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the Biology, biological Kingdom (biology), kingdom Animalia (). With few exceptions, animals heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, have myocytes and are motility, able to move, can reproduce sexually, and grow from a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during embryonic development. Animals form a clade, meaning that they arose from a single common ancestor. Over 1.5 million extant taxon, living animal species have been species description, described, of which around 1.05 million are insects, over 85,000 are molluscs, and around 65,000 are vertebrates. It has been estimated there are as many as 7.77 million animal species on Earth. Animal body lengths range from to . They have complex ecologies and biological interaction, interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as ...
