User's notes

This sighting is intended to cover the slug's 'passenger' which is assumed to be a Primitive insect. It was seen wandering along the leaf next to the slug (sighting 4435207) before climbing onto the slug, wandering around and then leaving. Definitely not some type of slug mite or tick.
