New paper's out ! We describe a new species from Jura, France: Avelona yvesi. Together with Avelona zicsii comb. nov., they belong to the same genus as the bioluminescent Avelona ligra... but are not bioluminescent. Northeast of France seems like an interesting center of endemism for earthworms !

Picture of an alive specimen of the newly describe species of earthworm : Avelona yvesi.
