Article Synopsis
- The cosmopolitan terrestrial slug, first reported in the Philippines, was identified through its morphology, morphometrics, and COI gene analysis from samples collected in Mindanao.
- Samples were gathered from highland regions in Region X with diverse crops like cabbage and Region XI near nurseries, showing close genetic relationships to specimens from other countries.
- Further research is needed to assess the slugs' potential impact on agriculture, their distribution, and associated pests in the Philippine agricultural landscape.
