*Earthworm factoid:

Larger terrestrial earthworms are also called megadriles (translates to "big worms"), opposed to the microdriles ("small worms") in the semiaquatic families Tubificidae, Lumbricidae, and Enchytraeidae. The megadriles are characterized by a distinct clitellum (more extensive than that of microdriles) and a vascular system with true capillaries.
