Abstract: | The biodiversity in the Tibetan region is still poorly known, particularly for its soil organisms. Here, we describe eleven enchytraeid species based on several taxonomical surveys in 2015-2016, from some soil localities in south region of the Tibet, China. All are firstly recorded in this region; seven species (Fridericia ratzeli sensu stricto, F. peregrinabunda, F. cusanica, F. bretscheri, Buchholzia sp., Enchytraeus buchholzi and Henlea sp.) are new records for China. |
