New records of Enchytraeidae (Oligochaeta) from Spitsbergen, Svalbard
Main Article Content
Abstract
During a survey of soil-inhabiting enchytraeids at Spitsbergen, Svalbard, two species, Mesenchytraeus argentatus and Bryodrilus parvus, not previously recorded from the island were found. Additionally, one species was recorded from a new locality at considerable distance from previous records. At present a total of 28 species are known from Spitsbergen, of which 13 species was found in the this study. Enchytraeus liefdeensis is synonymised with Enchytraeus kincaidi on the basis of the specimen found during this study.
