This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Jamieson, Barrie G. M., Fragoso, Carlos (2024): A monograph of the Oligochaete family Alluroididae. Zootaxa 5529 (3): 401-435, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.1, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.1

Abstract

The Alluroididae is a small oligochaete family with 8 genera and 13 known species occurring in freshwaters and in riverine soils in Africa, the Caribbean and Central and South America. It is here argued that their anatomy shows a transition from that of microdriles to that of megadriles (Metagynophora). A detailed description of comparative anatomy is given, followed by the systematics and some aspects of the ecology of all known genera, species and subspecies.
