Several of these microdrile worms were noted during the survey but were not kept, as explained in the Jeju study and unnecessary to repeat here ( Blakemore, 2013). Objective rationale for researching aquatic or marine worms when crucial terrestrial species are so poorly known and endangered seems unconvincing and difficult to justify without good ecological/economic reason. Without earthworms/soil, dependent species/systems are imperil- ed.
