## Abstract The linear distribution of ammoniaβgenerating enzymes (Lβserine dehydratase and 5β²βAMP deaminase) along the gut of __Lumbricus__ has been examined using that of the digestive enzymes as a frame of reference. This study confirms the observations of earlier workers indicating a high acti
## Abstract The toxicity and accumulation of arsenate was determined in the earthworm __Lumbricus terrestris__ in soil from different layers of a forest profile. Toxicity increased fourfold between 2 and 10 d. Edaphic factors (pH, soil organic matter, and depth in soil profile) also affected toxici
