These pages are designed to help beginners get started with the identification of common species of slugs and snails (molluscs) which may be found in most gardens in Great Britain and Ireland – some of them may also be found "in the wild".
 
Some may not occur in your garden, and yet others may be more common – much will depend on your locality – but an effort has been made to include the commonest and most distinctive species, in order not to discourage the beginner.
