Slug Discovered at Florida's Cedar Key

Caption

Gustav Paulay shows a slug-infested egg mass to University of Florida students. 'Score, score, score!' he said when he rediscovered the slug a week after its first sighting. Olea hensoni was common on the sand bar, feasting on about half of the egg masses the class examined.
