Abstract
Earthworm communities in the soil of flooded (coastal and floodplain grasslands) and non-flooded (boreo-nemoral) meadows were studied. The average number of species in coastal and floodplain meadows was low, earthworm communities of boreo-nemoral meadows were diverse and the average number of species was high. Specific composition of earthworm communities varied between the three types of meadows. Earthworm communities of flooded meadows possess specific characteristics being low in both numbers and species due to periodical anaerobic conditions during over flooding and negative effect of sea water in coastal meadows.
