Abstract:
This is the first record of megascolecid "jumping worms" from Wellington County, Ontario. Amynthas agrestis has previously been reported from Essex, Wentworth and York Counties, and Amynthas tokioensis from Chatham-Kent and Wentworth Counties in Ontario. Finding megascolecids under sod in the middle of a lawn is believed to be a second report.

Abstract:
Observations of gametogenesis facilitated understanding life history and reproductive processes in Megascolides australis, whose reproductive strategies are correlated with longevity, low density and poor dispersal ability. Worms are biparental and have a discrete breeding (egg laying) season in spring and summer. This coincides with the greatest number of mature ova and the glandular epidermis of the clitellar region being thickest. Gametogenesis occurs throughout the year, with sperm present in the spermathecae and available on male funnels ail year. Non-seasonal copulation may occur when tw

Abstract:
Present communication is the first study on earthworm fauna of Chhattisgarh in central India. A total of nine species belonging to seven genera and five families—Moniligastridae, Eudrilidae, Lumbricidae, Megascolecidae, and Octochaetidae—were collected from different parts of the state. Among the families, Megascolecidae is most dominant with maximum number of species; other families are represented by a single species in each. The earthworm fauna of the state is comprised of both native (5 species) and exotic peregrine (4 species). A brief description, distribution and identification key for

Au sud de la Chine, l'île de Hainan possède une biodiversité végétale et animale remarquable et ainsi est reconnue comme un des hotspots de la Chine. Cependant, seules 35 espèces lombriciennes avaitent été décrites avant 2006. En termes de paléogéographie, les points de vue divergent sur son origine tectonique complexe.
