Abstract: Recent collections have provided seven new county records of terrestrial earthworms in the province of Ontario, Canada. Allolobophora chlorotica in one county, Dendrobaena octaedra in one county, Dendrodrilus rubidus in one county, Eisenia fetida in one county, Lumbricus castaneus in one county, Octolasion cyaneun in one county and O. tyrtaeum in one county. These collections were made in an attempt to expand the range of invasive Asian "jumping worms" (Megascolecidae).
