Polyocular slug family: Difference between revisions

The family's genus, ''Gastropoidulus'', can be split up into ''gastropoid'' and the suffix ''ulus''. The first part, ''gastropoid'', is derived from the word {{w|gastropod}}, which are most commonly slugs and snails; In this case, slugs, due to their lack of a shell. The second part, ''ulus'', is a suffix that is used to create genus names and indicates smaller size. Therefore, putting the two words together, we get small slug.
