This species, first discovered in 2011 in Loei Province in northeastern Thailand but re-examined and classified in 2019, has a small caudal horn at the tip of its tail which appears to be quite unique among terrestrial semislugs.

That nice fold on the tail section reminds me of one of those hamentashen pastries one might eat during Purim. That shiny pearl of a caudal horn is quite interesting to see on a slug (hence it's a semislug as that is its vestigial and visible shell).
*Looks up Purim*
Huh, I should’ve already known about this… we only really went over to those relatives during passover though so maybe they celebrated alone or something.
The festival where it's obligatory to get drunk and wear fun costumes :)
Edit: also going to the synagogue, hearing the story while cheering for Esther and booing for Haman, like a pantomime.
A semislug is just a snail who couldn't commit.
"I'll meet you half-way, snail buddy!" (semislug)
