New slug and centipede found on the Island

The Manx Wildlife Trust says a volunteer's found two new species which have never been spotted on the Island before.

Sue Harvey recorded Eason's geophilus, a type of centipede, at the Close-e-Quayle nature reserve in the north of the Island.

She also found the Balkan Threeband Slug at Rosehill Quarry in Ballasalla.

The Trust says it's the first time either has been seen on the Island, although they have been found in Britain.
