Integrative Taxonomy Reveals a New Species of the <i>Eisenia andrei/fetida</i> Complex (Clitellata: Lumbricidae) From the Guizhou Plateau, China. [PDF]
We used mitochondrial COI genes and nuclear gene 28S rRNA genes to investigate the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary history of an unknown earthworm genus collected in Wangjiazhai Town, Zhongshan District, Liupanshui City. The results of molecular analyses supported it belongs to an Eisenia andrei/fetida complex.

Does Invasive Mammal Exclusion Restore an Ecosystem Function Mediated by Invertebrates? [PDF]
Excluding invasive mammals is key to protecting native biodiversity, but it is unclear if their removal also restores ecosystem functions, especially those provided by invertebrates, such as decomposition, pollination and herbivory. Fenced ecosanctuaries on mainland New Zealand, which exclude most introduced mammals except mice, offer a unique ...
