摘要：
Earthworm specimens collected from Sakon Nakhon and Nakhon Phanom, northeast Thailand, were found to contain four new species in the family Megascolecidae, with one species in the genus Metaphire Sims & Easton, 1972, and the other three in the genus Amynthas Kinberg, 1867. These are herein named Metaphire songkhramensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. in the sexthecal houlleti species group, and Amynthas sakonnakhonensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov., A. auriculus Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov., and A. bantanensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. in the sexthecal aelianus species group. Metaphire songkhramensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. occurs in dark clay soil of the oxbow lake of the river, Amynthas sakonnakhonensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. occurs in wetland area, A. auriculus Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. occurs in dark sandy loam habitats of mixed deciduous forest while the following species, A. bantanensis Chanabun & Panha, sp. nov. occurs in sandy loam habitats of paddy fields. Descriptions of the new species, including illustrations of the external and internal morphological characteristics, are provided.
