✦ Synopsis

In measuring the rate of the nervous impulse in the slug Ariolimax columbianus the fact of the remarkable extensibility of the pedal nerves, which were used for the pupose by us, was a matter of constant observation, as it gave us no little trouble in making the determinations. This slug reaches a large size, individuals being frequently met with which, when extended in the act of crawling, are 25 centimeters in length.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the role of the gut in the osmotic balance of the land slug Arwlimax columbianus. Previous investigators have shown that absorption of nutrients, calcium, and some heavy metals occurs in the slug's digestive gland and intestine. The only function suggested

## Abstract The giant garden slug, __Limax maximus__, crawls by producing sequential pedal waves that propagate forward along a medial band of muscle running the full length of the foot. Nerves that originate in the pedal ganglion appear to innervate the foot musculature along its length, but not a

## Abstract Although widely used in wetland hydrological studies, hydraulic conductivity (__K__) estimates from piezometer slug tests are often of questionable validity. Frequently, this is because insufficient attention is paid to the details of the test procedure. Further, in a potentially hetero
