L. C. aNew earthworm species of Glossoscolex Leuckart, 1835 and Fimoscolex Michaelsen, 1900 (ClitellatabGlossoscolecidae) from Northern Paraná, Brazil.h[electronic resource] c2012 aTen new species of Oligochaeta of the genera Glossoscolex (9) and Fimoscolex (1) are described from material collected in northern Paraná and neighboring São Paulo State, Brazil: Glossoscolex lutocolus n. sp., G. palus n. sp., G. itaguajensis n. sp., G. uliginosus n. sp., G. primaensis n. sp., G. mariarum n. sp., G. sanpedroensis n. sp., G. giocondoi n. sp. and Fimoscolex bartzi n. sp. The subgenus Glossoscolex (Praedrilus) is validated, with the inclusion of three more species (G. lutocolus n. sp., G. itaguajensis n. sp., and G. uliginosus n. sp.). The truncatus species group (male pores in xvii) of Glossoscolex (Glossoscolex), to which the remaining six new Glossoscolex were assigned, is more problematic because several characters conflict with the character used to define this group (position of male pores). The relationships between Glossoscolex (Assudrilus) and Fimoscolex are discussed, and Fimoscolex sacii (Righi, 1971) is re-ascribed to Glossoscolex (Assudrilus). A new species of the genus Fimoscolex is presented, with a single intraclitellar male pore. We provide a table of characters in order to clarify the differences among the species described and the main species groups and sub-genera of Glossoscolex, as well as some information on the ecology of some of the new species, including habitat and soil associations. aAnnelida aearthworms aOligochaeta aMinhoca aHaplotaxida aNeotrópico aNeotropics1 aJAMES, S.
