The authors present the results of recent investigations of earthworms from Šumadija. Research was carried out during 1996-2003 and included natural and cultivated biotopes from various parts of Šumadija. We found 27 taxa including six species new for the earthworm fauna of Šumadija: Dendrobaena alpina, Helodrilus cernosvitovianus, Octolasion cyaneum, Octodrilus complanatus, Serbiona serbica, and Serbiona paratuleskovi.
