Enchytraeidae, commonly referred to as pot worms, is a family of un-pigmented terrestrial oligochaeta. The common name, pot worms, derived from their proneness to be found within the soil of container plants. Furthermore, many experienced gardeners are under the belief that soil or compost is not considered to be normal without the presence of pot worms.
