The use of the multivariate Principal Response Curve (PRC) for community analysis: a case study on the effects of carbendazim on enchytraeids in Terrestrial Model Ecosystems (TME). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The effects of the fungicide carbendazim (formulation Derosal®) on enchytraeids were determined in Terrestrial Model Ecosystem (TME) tests. TMEs consisted of intact soil columns (diameter 17.5 cm; length 40 cm) taken from three grassland sites (Amsterdam

Influence of bryophyte biomass and organic matter quantity on the abundance and richness of oligochaetes in forest streams with different phytophysiognomies in southeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2016
Aquatic oligochaetes can be found associated with different types of substrates; including bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) adhered to stones in lotic ecosystems.

Italian Enchytraeidae (Oligochaeta). I [PDF]

open access: yesBolletino di zoologia, 1995
Abstract During the period 1989–1994, soil samples were collected at 51 localities in six different regions of Italy. Twelve genera and 61 species could be distinguished. One genus (Oconnorella gen. n.) and 12 species (Mesenchytraeus straminicolus sp. n., Cernosvitoviella omodeoi sp. n., Achaeta etrusca sp. n., Fridericia globuligera sp. n., Fridericia

Three new enchytraeid species from Korean soils: Description of Fridericia granulocytoides sp. nov., Mesenchytraeus jeombongensis sp. nov. and Mesenchytraeus racemosus sp. nov. (Enchytraeidae, Clitellata)

open access: yesAnimal Taxonomy and Ecology
The terrestrial enchytraeid fauna of South Korea has been intensively studied in recent years, as a consequence of which, several species new to science have been described.

Different roles of elevational and local environmental factors on abundance-based beta diversity of the soil Enchytraeidae on the Changbai Mountain. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2019
The elevational alpha biodiversity gradient in mountain regions is one of the well‐known ecological patterns, but its beta diversity pattern remains poorly known.

Influência de variáveis ambientais sobre a comunidade de oligoquetos (Annelida: Clitellata) em um córrego neotropical

open access: yesBiotemas, 2014
Dentre os organismos da comunidade bentônica, os oligoquetos são peças fundamentais no fluxo de energia e na reciclagem de matéria orgânica nos ecossistemas aquáticos, onde sua distribuição é influenciada, principalmente, pelos padrões hidrológicos ...

Checklist of taxa of Enchytraeidae (Oligochaeta): an update

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2023
The checklist of accepted species of Enchytraeidae in Schmelz & Collado (2012) included 676 species (682 with subspecies). Subsequently, 34 new species and 2 new subspecies were described, and one new genus was erected.

Cognettia sphagnetorum (Vejdovský, 1878) (Annelida, Clitellata, Enchytraeidae) in North America, confirmed with molecular support

open access: yesCheck List, 2021
Cognettia sphagnetorum (Vejdovský, 1878), a common inhabitant of forest soils and bogs in northern Europe, is a model organism in soil biology. We report the first documented occurrence of C.

Comparison of Short Generalist and Specific Markers to Assess the Diversity of Arthropods Using eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
By analyzing > 1200 eDNA samples with different markers amplifying arthropods, we show that generalist and specific markers produce correlated pictures of community variation; still specific markers provide a more accurate measure of biodiversity and of its response to environmental stressors.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1877-1949, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...
