worms, he was not aware OF the ex-
istence of more than eight or ten
species in Great Britain Now, owing
to the labors of students who have de-
voted their time to the study OF
earthworms in that country, at least
twenty different species are known.
and a vast amount OF interesting in
formation has been gathered concern
ing their character and habits.
1t might be thought that there 10
not much difference among worms.
