true_islanderDescription
Came across this snail that seemed to be eating lichen at the side of the trail. (It had just stopped raining.) The body was impressively far out of the shell! The shell didn’t have a band but it was very worn. The body seems diagnostic of Pacific sideband. I’d appreciate any other thoughts.

corndogDescription
Tiny larvae ( <.5 cm ) inside decayed wood, carrying brown orbs, occasionally depositing them. Is it a frass shield like in some Coleoptera larvae? Are they diptera larvae instead??
Bearing a striking resemblance to a slime mold.

These slugs have been EVERYWHERE this summer. I'm not good with slugs, or gastropods in general. Anyone familiar with Interior Alaska endemic slugs? I'm concerned these guys are invasive.

pliffgrieffDescription
An example of an albinistic M. fidelis (formerly going by the name of M. fidelis flava). Notice how the body color is also lighter than usual for this species.
