DNA barcoding reveals diversity patterns of earthworm communities in remote tropical forests of French Guiana

2016-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Despite representing a key component of terrestrial biota, soil invertebrates in tropical rainforests have been poorly studied from both a taxonomic and an ecological perspective when compared to other groups of terrestrial animals. We sampled earthworm communities in a range of sampling locations in two different study sites of the Nouragues Natural Reserve in French Guiana, focusing on lowland to plateau and hil...
