Unfortunately I can't identify this one, but I'll let @turb have a look first.

turb, these were all under a large bin, and as far as I could tell, they were just trying to escape down holes or under cover when I lifted the bin. There were quite a lot of slugs, including Yellow Cellular Slug, Leopard Slug and Striped Field Slug, but no predatory behaviour that I could detect.

Did the flatworm attack and feed on the slug?
