Contribution to the knowledge of the terrestrial slugs (gastropoda, pulmonata) of the Maghreb

As a result of recent malacological campaigns of our team in Algeria and Morocco, some previous samples, and after reviewing the literature, specially the recent papers about the Tunisian slugs, we produce a list of slugs of the Maghreb (Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia), with comments or discussion on each of the 17 species that form this list. We report for the first time Deroceras laeve (O.F. Müller, 1774) and Testacella haliotidea Draparnaud, 1801 in North Africa, although with reservations regarding the latter. We also report Lehmannia nyctelia (Bourguignat, 1861) for the first time in Morocco, concretely in the Chafarinas Islands, of Spanish sovereignty.
