TL;DR: It was found that local species richness and abundance typically peaked at higher latitudes, displaying patterns opposite to those observed in aboveground organisms, which suggest that climate change may have serious implications for earthworm communities and for the functions they provide.

TL;DR: In this paper, earthworm population dynamics was studied in two agroforestry systems in the tropical hilly terrain of Mizoram, north-east India, over a period of 24 months, from July 2002 to June 2004.

TL;DR: The Earthworm diversity data, obtained from the primary literature or provided directly by authors, were collated with information on site locations, including coordinates, habitat cover, and soil properties.

TL;DR: In insight into the gut microbial composition and their putative functional roles in the gut of tropical hilly earthworms, the presence of enzymes involved in the process of denitrification and methanogenesis were identified.
