Unidentified Philomycid Slug

    This exotic slug species, measuring about 70 mm. in length, was found and photographed by Robert Pilla in the Redland section (SW 157th Avenue just south of  216th Street ) of Miami-Dade County, Florida on October 22, 2008. After coordination, the specimen was turned over to the USDA the same day for dissection/possible identification. After analysis, the slug was determined to be an albinistic Philomycid species - with specific identification to be determined later by further analysis.
