Archivo: Slender banana slug (Ariolimax dolichophallus) and Dandelion Seed

Description: Ever wonder how all those Dandelions get spread about? Take a look at the hind end of this guy. That hole on the right side is for gas exchange (breathing); the long tentacles are for sensing light and the shorter ones provide a sense of smell (or might be used for feeling and tasting depending on which internet site you refer to). I found it interesting that these sensors can be regrown if lost. Ariolimax dolichophallus (Long penis...that's what the scientist said the name meant.)
