About Leidyula moreleti (Crosse & P.Fischer, 1872)
Leidyula moreleti is a species of air-breathing land slug, a shell-less terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk that belongs to the family Veronicellidae. The known distribution of Leidyula moreleti includes Mexico. This species has not become established in the United States yet, but it is considered a potentially serious threat. It is classed as an invasive pest species that could negatively impact agriculture, natural ecosystems, human health, and commerce. Because of this potential threat, it has been suggested that Leidyula moreleti should be given top national quarantine significance in the USA.
