摘要
Earthworm specimens were collected from Mt. Isarog, Camarines Sur Province, the Philippines. Two new species of the genus Pheretima are described from Mt.

Pheretima abiadai sp. nov. has spermathecal pores 0.25 circumference apart, copulatory bursae openings 0.19 circumference apart. Pheretima nagaensis sp. nov. has spermathecal pores 0.29 circumference apart; copulatory bursae openings 0.25 circumference apart.
