Limacoid Clade
The Limacoidei is a taxonomic infraorder of air-breathing land snails, semislugs and slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the suborder Helicina Distribution The original ancestral area of limacoid families is thought to be the Palearctic region and south-eastern Asia. Etymology The word "limacoid" means "resembling a slug". Typography of the name In 1998, for the same taxon, Hausdorf used the name Limacoidea sensu lato. The name of this taxon, the limacoid clade, was written by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) with quotation marks like this: "limacoid clade". Other typographical variants are used by various other authors, for example capitalizing and restricting the use of the quote marks thus: "Limacoid" clade and "Limacoid clade". 2003 taxonomy by Schileyko The study of A. Schileyko in this group, published in parts 8–11 of his monograph between 2002 and 2003, did not discuss the system that Hausdorf had proposed. However, Schileyko refers to the wo ...

Bielzia Coerulans
''Bielzia coerulans'', commonly known as the Carpathian blue slug or simply the blue slug, is a species of very large land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod in the family Limacidae, the keelback slugs. Taxonomy ''Bielzia coerulans'' was discovered in 1847 and described under the name ''Limax coerulans'' by Austrian-Hungarian malacologist, Michael Bielz (1787-1866), in 1851. (His son Eduard Albert Bielz was also a malacologist.) ''Bielzia coerulans'' is the only species in the genus ''Bielzia''. Wiktor A. (1989). ''Limacoidea et Zonitoidea nuda. Slimaki pomrowioksztaltne (Gastropoda: Stylommatophora)''. Fauna Poloniae 12, Polska Akademia Nauk, Warszawa, 208 pp., page 178-181. Some authors, for example Russian malacologists, classify genus ''Bielzia'' as the only genus (monotypic) within the separate family, Limacopsidae. There is also a separate subfamily, Bielziinae, for genus ''Bielzia'' (I. M. Likharev & Wiktor, 1980). According to the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocr ...
