Forty taxa of aquatic microdrile oligochaetes(Annelida, Clitellata)that belong to three families were recorded in inundated rice paddies in Japan on the basis of faunistic survey in 81 localities. To our knowledge, three naidine species, Bratislavia dadayi, Dero nivea, and Aulophorus hymanae, are new to Japan. The oligochaete assemblages primarily consisted of widely distributed and thermophile species and were often dominated by desiccation-tolerant species such as Aulodrilus limnobius…

Records of Tubificid Oligochaetes from Padang, West Sumatra, Indonesia, with Description of a New Species of Aulodrilus Bretscher

A new tubificid oligochaete, Aulodrilus acutus, is described from Padang, West Sumatra, Indonesia, which is distinguished by having tapering distal ends to the oar-shaped chaetae and by lacking penial chaetAE and the associated glands.

Bratislavia dadayi (Michaelsen, 1905) (Annelida: Clitellata: Naididae): a new non-indigenous species for Europe, and other non-native annelids in the Schelde estuary

Bratislavia dadayi is one of 11 non-indigenous annelids currently known to occur in the Schelde estuary, where it was probably introduced from the Americas.

Impacts of agricultural practices on aquatic oligochaete populations in ricefields

Populations, determined by the wet sieving of soil cores, were dominated by the Tubificidae Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri, and population dynamics were associated with the crop cycle.

The Seasonal Succession of Species in a Rice Paddy in Vientiane, Laos

In the biological year of the rice paddy, two primary phases, dry and wet, were easily discernible, and within the wet phase, four periods could be defined by the successive aggregations of species.

Mitochondrial DNA reveals cryptic oligochaete species differing in cadmium resistance.

This study provides a phylogeny of "T. tubifex" based on a segment of the mitochondrial 16S rDNA and presents a rapid PCR-based method of genotype screening which was then applied in cadmium toxicity studies on natural populations.

The use of tubificids for weeding and aquaculture in paddy fields in Japan

A method to control paddy field ecosystems based on the above to produce rice and freshwater fish, with organic fertilizers but without the use of herbicides and insecticides is considered.
