L. Rubellus = E. Fetida?![edit]

I removed this extraordinary claim for being unsourced: It [L. rubellus] is one of the species of earthworm commonly claimed ^{[citation needed]} for used in vermiculture although each instance, on proper inspection, has been found to be Eisenia fetida^{[citation needed]}. 198.189.164.204 (talk) 23:09, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Citation[edit]

One of the Edwards & Lofty citations says 1983. Is this right? One of the other articles had the year 1983 on it, but if there was another edition by E/L, it wasn't cited. 128.189.154.92 (talk) 08:44, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the bit about misspellings -- firstly, it added nothing to the article, and secondly, I've never seen them misspelt that way before. jake b (talk) 20:25, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Epigeic, endogeic, anecic?=[edit]

The article doesn't say wheter this particular species is epigeic, endogeic or anecic. For those who don't know, this is a common classification of earthworms, according which part of the soil they live on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.13.156.157 (talk) 14:51, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
