| Samenvatting: | In this paper, we have summarized the current knowledge on earthworm diversity in the central part Serbia, Kragujevac basin. The complete list of earthworm taxa comprises 37 species and subspecies, belonging to 13 genera of the family Lumbricidae. Among them, Dendrobaena serbica (Šapkarev, 1977) is registered for the first time in the study area. With respect to the zoogeographic situation, most of the earthworm species belong to Peregrine, Endemic, and Central European chorological groups. The endemic species take part of 21.05% in the total number of the species. The most of endemic species belong to the genus Allolobophora. Summing up the endemics and the Balkanic species, 31.58% of the total lumbricid fauna shows an autochthonous character. |
