The results of our study provide new information about the saprobic life cycle and natural prevalence of the species, but also show that, in standard conditions, A. appendiculatum has a very weak influence on the mortality and feeding activity of A. vulgaris. We concede that the effect of A. appendiculatum on the slug host can be strongly influenced by bacterial associates, even though the role of bacteria in nematode development is questionable and needs further research.
