Abstract

The following seven species of soil enchytraeids belonging to five genera were collected from Korea: Enchytraeus buchholzi $Vejdovsk{\acute{y}}$, 1878, Enchytraeus irregularis Nielsen & Christensen, 1961, Fridericia bulboides Nielsen & Christensen, 1959, Hemifridericia parva Nielsen & Christensen, 1959, Henlea perpusilla Friend, 1911, Henlea ventriculosa (Udekem, 1854), and Marionina argentea Michaelsen, 1889 sensu lato. Species were found in soil and litter layers of sites investigated in 2007, 2008 and 2014. Diagnoses or descriptions for these species are provided here with new micrographs or drawings.
