Earthworms (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae) of Interior Alaska [PDF]
Earthworms in the family Lumbricidae in Alaska, which are known from coastal regions, primarily in south-central and south-eastern Alaska, are thought to be entirely non-native and have been shown to negatively impact previously earthworm-free ecosystems

The mitochondrial genome of Dendrobaena tellermanica Perel, 1966 (Annelida: Lumbricidae) and its phylogenetic position [PDF]
Earthworms are an important ecological group that has a significant impact on soil fauna as well as plant communities. Despite their importance, genetic diversity and phylogeny of earthworms are still insufficiently studied.

Two novel bioassays useful for the quick assessment of chemical effects on the behavior of mosquito larvae (Culicidae) and adult earthworms (Lumbricidae) [PDF]
: The behavior, i.e., observable response of an organism can serve as a useful indicator of environmental quality. In the absence of death and other sublethal effects, behavioral changes can represent early warning signs of toxic effects.

Characterization of Five New Earthworm Mitogenomes (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae): Mitochondrial Phylogeny of Lumbricidae [PDF]
Identification based on conventional morphological characteristics is typically difficult and time-consuming. The development of molecular techniques provides a novel strategy that relies on specific mitochondrial gene fragments to conduct authentication.

Структура популяцій люмбрицид (Oligochaeta, Lumbricidae) у біогеоценозах горбогір’я Вороняків
Видовий склад дощових черв’яків у біоценозах горбогір’я Вороньків представлений дванадцятьма видами з восьми родів родини Lumbricidae. Найбільше видове багатство відзаначено для біоценозів заплавних лук, найменший індекс видового багатства в агроценозах.
