Could that just be a data box - something like "common to:" or "commonly found in:".

Unfortunately, I did not think to take a picture. I kept it in a jar while researching. I am glad that I looked it up, though, because I read that if you step on them or otherwise cut them, the pieces will form a new individual. They eat earthworms by "whipping" their bodies around their victim and I read horror stories of them "whipping" their bodies around peoples ankles and wrists. Blinking

I have since found 3 more but they were smaller individuals. I will get a picture next time around.
