Citation

Martin, P [date accessed]. Southern Ocean oligochaete occurrence data - a literature-based compilation. accessed through the SCAR-MarBIN webportal. https://doi.org/10.15468/mwhecf accessed via GBIF.org on 2025-07-16.

Description

This data set gives all occurrences of marine oligochaetes in the Southern Ocean mentioned in the literature, from 1888 (first mention) until 2009. 25 species were mentioned, representative of three families, namely the Capilloventridae (1 genus, 1 species), the Enchytraeidae (3 genera, 16 species) and the Tubificidae. The latter family includes 3 subfamilies, the Rhyacodrilinae (1 genus, 1 species + 1 undetermined), the Phallodrilinae (3 genera, 5 species) and the Limnodriloidinae (1 genus, 1 species).
