Outdoor surviving experiment with three green house enchytraeid species (Oligochaeta: Enchytraeidae)
نویسنده
چکیده
Some enchytraeid species of tropical, subtropical or Mediterranean origin can appear in artificial environments, e.g. green houses due to the worldwide commercial network. Since the used soil from green houses is often disposed outdoors, a question raised that these exotic enchytraeid species could survive under continental climate conditions. In this experiment two of the resettled green house species survived outdoors the winter frost and the arid summer season in Hungary.

During the exploration of the enchytraeid fauna in forests and grasslands of Hungarian flat areas, a small enchytraeid species, Hemifridericia bivesiculata Christensen & Dózsa-Farkas, 2006, was found unexpectedly. This species was known previously only from one single location, Bank Island in the Canadian archipelago, and was presumed to be endemic. Here, the distinctive features of the two Hem...

Enchytraeidae (Oligochaeta, Annelida) are often considered to be typical forestliving organisms, but they are regularly found in agroecosystems of the temperate regions of the world. Although less known than their larger relatives, the earthworms, these saprophagous organisms play similar roles in agricultural soils (but at a smaller scale), e.g., influencing soil structure and organic matter d...

متن کاملMicrodrile Oligochaeta in bromeliad pools of a Honduran cloud forest.
Phytotelmata, or plant-held water bodies, often house complex aquatic invertebrate communities. Microdrile oligochaetes (Clitellata, Annelida) are known to be part of that community, but specimens are rarely identified to species level. Here we report three species of Enchytraeidae and three species of Naididae from a collection sampled in phytotelms of bromeliads in Cusuco National Park, Hondu...
