Abstract

This article provides some information on the biology of earthworms and discusses the issues of determining the density of earthworms in the wild. Earthworms also affect soil structure. The special substance secreted by the glands in their gut has the property of neutralizing the acid reaction of the soil. They pass the soil through the intestines and produce fine-grained coprolites. Coprolites are not crushed in water, absorb moisture well.
