Geomalacus oliveirae is a species of air-breathing land slug, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Arionidae, the round back slugs.
Distribution of Geomalacus oliveirae include:
Geomalacus oliveirae is a slug light with 4 black colour bands, inner bands are irregularly interrupted, main marginal bands sharply delimited against the light background. [2] The length of the body of preserved specimen is 20 mm. [2]
Reproductive system: Genital retractor inserts more anteriorly in the median line of dorsum than in the other species. [2]
Geomalacus oliveirae lives in Portugal in Mediterranean shrubland and on granitic substrate, also under Betula , Pinus and Juniperus trees, below 1300 m. [2] It lives in Spain under Pinus and in olive orchards. [2]
Pine nuts, also called piñón, pinoli, or pignoli, are the edible seeds of pines. About 20 species of pine produce seeds large enough to be worth harvesting; in other pines, the seeds are also edible, but are too small to be of notable value as a human food.
Quercus suber, commonly called the cork oak, is a medium-sized, evergreen oak tree in the section Quercus sect. Cerris. It is the primary source of cork for wine bottle stoppers and other uses, such as cork flooring and as the cores of cricket balls. It is native to southwest Europe and northwest Africa. In the Mediterranean basin the tree is an ancient species with fossil remnants dating back to the Tertiary period.
Pinus nigra, the Austrian pine or black pine, is a moderately variable species of pine, occurring across southern Mediterranean Europe from the Iberian Peninsula to the eastern Mediterranean, on the Anatolian peninsula of Turkey on Corsica and Cyprus as well as Crimea and in the high mountains of Northwest Africa.
In biology, a taxon with a disjunct distribution is one that has two or more groups that are related but considerably separated from each other geographically. The causes are varied and might demonstrate either the expansion or contraction of a species' range.
