Spoiler: click to toggle found 2 of these things walking to school mahogany brown with back spots, and about 5-7 inches long at least 8-10 times the size of any slug I've ever seen north of the border considering contacting the provincial natural history museum avout this, could be signs of a spreading invasive Edited by stargatedalek, Jun 17 2014, 09:32 AM.

I'd say: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limax_maximus#Nonindigenous_distribution They're really common here and have apparently been introduced in many places They can get at least twice as big here, but that's probably coz it's warmer.

Small critters can easily go unnoticed. I've seen them too (weird since Italy isn't in that list), but not very often. |

I used to spend hours on end looking at microfauna so they must have only shown up locally within the last few years Provence wide I can't say nor do I recall having seen them on any invasives lists |
