dc.description.abstractThis paper presents the list of earthworms found in five affected by the uranium mining activities areas in Bulgaria. For the whole period of study (2011-2016) ten species belonging to six genera of family Lumbricidae were recorded. The genera Aporrectodea and Lumbricus were represented by 3 species each, and the other four by one species only. Half of all registered earthworms were endogeic. Three species (Aporrectodea rosea, Eisenia fetida and Octolasion lacteum) were found in all sampling sites.
