THE INFLUENCE OF SOIL GRANULOMETRIC COMPOSITION ON THE HOROLOGY OF EARTHWORMS

Lesia Buslenko, Ryszard Dębicki, Volodymyr Ivantsiv

Abstract


The influence of granulometric composition of fractions from different soil horizons on the qualitative and quantitative composition of earthworms has been studied. The effect of granulometric fractions on the formation of humidity, temperature, gaseous regime, actual acidity as main abiotic factors in genesis of earthworms complexes in the soils of Western Volyn and Podillya has been described.
