Abstract:

Research involved three successional sequences on meadows in Suwałki Landscape Park (north-eastern Poland). 2-6 species of Lumbricidae were found on the different sites, with older meadows having a greater abundance and biomass of earthworms. The two dominant species were Aporrectodea caliginosa (Sav.) and Lumbricus rubellus Hoffm.
