| description |
In Slovenia, 27 species of slugs have been confirmed so far. Distributional data for two species from the genus Limax new for the country are presented herewith. Limax conemenosi was found for the first time in Slovenia at Nova Gora near Krško, whereas Limax dacampi was first recorded in the village of Osp and recently in the village of Abitanti. Species identities were assessed on the basis of external morphological features and diagnostic DNA sequences of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I. Subsequently, the new number of slug species confirmed in Slovenia is 29.
