Possibly a leech? I though it might be a slug, but it lacks feelers and has a very similar stripe pattern to some leeches found in North Carolina. Anybody know the species name?
Deep mountain woods on the Wesser Creek trail. Found this little one attached to the heartwood of a massive tree that had been cut to clear the trail.

This looks similar to the Carolina Mantleslug (Philomycus carolinianus). Here is my spotting of this species: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/276...
Yours looks more yellow than mine but the color/pattern looks right. See what you think.
