Abstract

The conservation status of all known New Zealand Megascolecid earthworm taxa (179 taxa) was assessed using the New Zealand Threat Classification System (NZTCS). A full list is presented, along with a statistical summary and brief notes on the most important changes. 105 taxa are ranked Data Deficient, 1 Declining, 31 Naturally Uncommon, 40 Not Threatened and 2 Introduced and Naturalised. This list replaces all previous NZTCS lists for earthworms.
