Triboniophorus graeffei
Australia's largest land slug. Can reach up to 15cm! Distinctive red triangle surrounds pneumostome.
Found commonly on smooth bark of gum trees (eucalypts). Slugs feed on algae on the bark and leave behind grazing trails. Usually seen in wet weather down Australia's eastern coast.
