First of all, slugs do not have shells. Secondly, there is only one type of freshwater slug--Acochlidium.

Your area should have a Wildlife and Game commission (we have them here in the states anyhow) with some degreed biologists on their staff or at least some very experienced local wildlife experts. I'd send them the picture and see what they think. Worth a try.
