autodidact/amateur, staring at slugs since 2018
If you got a question about an ID ask away. But please don't just agree with me to reach Researchgrade.
Everyone makes mistakes and so do i.
Main interests are land gastropods, vascular plants, mushroom producing Fungi, soil, ecology. Anything natural sciency is cool.
Thanks to anyone helping me figure out what i find!

I mostly throw ID's at insufficient or misidentified slugs listed under Stylommatophora.
For slugs it's ideal to include pictures showing different body parts, like the right flank (pneumostome in focus ideally), full body (top down), sole (underside it crawls on). Extra points for visible colors/patterns and head/tentacles!
A note on size or smth for scale is greatly appreciated.

---Some slugs cannot be reliably identified to species from external features alone, especially if certain species occur sympatrical.---

Send a dm if theres anything (preferred). I speak german and english.
Or you can reach me here: creaturefeaturee97@gmail.com (I don't check often)

I kept some terrestrial gastropods for short periods and learned more about behavior and lifecycle.
Now and again i still do but not really long term.
I grow non threatened native, non invasive plants from spore and seed collect myself since 2018.
Went mushroom picking as a kid and startet doing so by myself again a decade ago.

If you are a researcher im happy to share the locations for anything i post.

And other videos of behavior and random things. Nothing too fancy.

In case of my death i want everything here to stay as is.
Falls ich krepiert bin, alles lassen wie es ist. Sonst komm ich euch heimsuchen.
