This book contains 36 of the papers presented at the meetings covering the many aspects of oligochaete biology from ecological through evolutionary studies, divided into the following sections: systematics and evolution; taxonomy and geographic distribution; distribution, abundance and habitat types; ultrastructure; pollution studies; and population dynamics.and evolution; taxonomy and geographic distribution; distribution, abundance and habitat types; ultrastructure; pollution studies; and population dynamics. The volume highlights contributions of Soviet oligochaete biology presented in English since 1980. Nine of the 36 papers in this collection are written by authors from the former USSR.
