| Abstract | Terrestrial molluscs are one of the world’s most endangered phyla, yet, research surrounding this unique invertebrate group is scarce, especially in Ontario, Canada where this research project was carried out. This project coordinated with a specimen collection consisting of various native and invasive mollusc species from the Kawartha Lakes region in Ontario, Canada. The purpose of the collection was to validate the existence of certain species and to gain a clearer understanding of the proportion of invasive species, compared to native, that live in specific preferred habitats. The results of this project is consistent with other experiments, demonstrating that invasive species of slugs and snails often outnumber native species, depending on the habitat. |
