Guerrero III in 1982 via West Germany, the original cocoons courtesy of Dr. Otto Graff (Guerrero et al. 1984). The origin of this species is West Africa, but it is now widely distributed in both tropical and subtropical countries of the world (Graff 1981, cited by Guerrero et al. 1984). However, the African night crawler is only one of the most common species of earthworm that have been identified

worldwide as having the best potential for breaking down organic materials. These earthworms include the Eisenia fetida (tiger worm) and the closely related E. andrei, Dendrobaena veneta, and Lumbricus rubellus (red wriggler), all from temperate regions, and the Perionyx excavatus, and Perionyx hawayana from the tropics (Edwards and Arancon 2006). According to Kale (2006), E. fetida is the universally accepted species for vermiculture. The table that follows shows some of the comparative characteristics of selected composting earthworms.
