| Summary: | This volume includes contributions presented at the 8th International Symposium on Enchytraeidae, held in Durham, U.K., 3 to 5 July, 2008. Fifteen participants from seven European countries gave 7 talks and 7 poster presentations, most of them in the field of soil ecology. A one-day excursion to the Durham Coast was used to take soil samples from a variety of habitats. The extracted worms were the material for a workshop on enchytraeid identification the following day, monitored by R. M. Schmelz, who had prepared a text key to the identification of European species. An extended version of this handout will be published in one of the following issues of ‘Soil Organisms’. The joint identification efforts during the workshop are included in this volume (Standen et al.).
