Earth Worm

Lumbricina

Description:

Earth Worms have long tubular bodies with no arms, legs, or even eyes. They are commonly found in pink colonization, but can also be seen in grey or brown.

Habitat:

Earth Worms are commonly found in areas with moist soil and plenty of dead plant material, such as rainy forest areas.

Notes:

Since Earth Worms have no mouths to breath air out of, they have small holes around their body to circulate air into their bodies. They need to keep their bodies moist in order to survive, if their skin dries up, they die.
