New earthworms belonging to the genus ofAmynthasKinberg (Megascolecidae: Oligochaeta) andDrawidaMichaelsen (Moniligastridae: Oligochaeta) from Guangdong, China

This paper describes three new species of earthworm from Guangdong, China: Amynthas heshanensis sp. nov., Amynthas jiangmenensis sp. nov., and Drawida cheni sp. nov. The former two species both have two pairs of spermathecal pores in 6/7–7/8, and simple paired caecae in XXV. Four similar Amynthas species are reviewed. Drawida cheni sp. nov. has similar characters in external appearance (large body size, no dorsal pore, and no clitellum) with Drawida sulcata Zhong, 1986 from Yunnan, China. The species is distinguished from other Drawida species by the five gizzards, which are otherwise only found in D. syringa Chen, 1933, the smooth body without setae, the superficial male pores, and the female pores in 12/13.
