New earthworm records from various parts of Greece (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae, Acanthodrilidae, Megascolecidae, Ocnerodrilidae)

摘要

Elaboration of new earthworm materials collected from the continental and insular parts of Greece resulted in recording altogether 22 species and subspecies, of which three, namely Pontodrilus litoralis (Grube, 1855), Ocnerodrilus occidentalis Eisen, 1878 and Dendrobaena pentheri (Rosa, 1905) as senior synonym of Dendrobaena aegea (Cognetti, 1913) proved to be new to the fauna of Greece. Consequently, the number of the earthworm species recorded for Greece is raised to 59.
