Summary edit

Description
English: Earthworm burrow Earthworms belong to the class Oligochaeta of the phylum Annelida. They make up five families of which the Lumbricidae are native to North America, Europe, and northern Asia. There are over 5,500 named species of earthworms known worldwide. The animals live mainly underground, traversing the soil in burrows that they create. They are essential to composting in that they pull below ground and ingest any organic matter that is deposited on the soil surface as well as soil particles and small stones. Because of its burrowing activities, the earthworm helps to keep the soil structure open and aerated. For more information see Earthworm
