About: Semi-slug

An Entity of Type: mollusca, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Semi-slugs, also spelled semislugs, are land gastropods whose shells are too small for them to retract into, but not quite vestigial. The shell of some semi-slugs may not be easily visible on casual inspection, because the shell may be covered over with the mantle. This is a type of gastropod that is intermediate between a slug (without an external shell) and a land snail (with a large enough shell to retract completely into). There exist a number of gastropod families that have semi-slugs species. There exist about 1,000 species of semi-slugs in comparison to about only 500 species of slugs.

  • Полуслизень (полуслизняк) — тип наземных брюхоногих моллюсков, которые, в отличие от слизней, имеют рудиментарную раковину, но, в отличие от улиток, не имеют полноценной большой раковины. (ru)
  • Semi-lesma é a designação dada em malacologia aos gastrópodes terrestres cujas conchas, apesar de não serem vestigiais, não permitem que o animal retraia as suas partes moles para o seu interior. A concha das semi-lesmas pode não ser facilmente visível, ou identificável, por observadores não treinados, porque pode estar total ou parcialmente recobreta pelo manto. (pt)
