Winterfell survivor: The European phylogeography of a riparian earthworm (Annelida, Clitellata)
Abstract Although some earthworms can survive in permafrost and tolerate cold conditions, it is generally believed that most earthworms were eradicated from northern latitudes during the Last Glacial Maximum. The main goal of this study is to test this hypothesis using a cosmopolitan earthworm as model, Eiseniella tetraedra. We collected 1640 specimens
