This dataset includes earthworm records generated by research projects undertaken by the Earthworm Research Group at the University of Central Lancashire between 1994 and 2018. Please see the Earthworm Research Group (UCLan) website for further information regarding the research this data was collated from: http://www.uclan.ac.uk/research/explore/groups/earthwormresearchgroup.phpSampling Description
Quality Control
All records are 'Considered correct'. The ESB has not verified individual records with the determiners, though it should be noted that the many of the determiners are recognised and respected earthworm ecologists. Data should therefore be checked against original sources before use in contentious circumstances. The data has not been checked using NBN Record Cleaner. The range of each of the British earthworm species is not currently known.Method steps
- Records result from a range of data capture methods (and this is recorded in the 'Method' field where known).
