[Annelida] earthworm biological control using fungi?

[Geoff Read]

Hello Enrique,

No, but there might be some leads within these two papers or within the
journals they are published in.

Daniel, A.P.; Carl, T.R.; Kumudini, M.M.; David, W.W. (2010). Managing
earthworm casts (Oligochaeta: Lumbricidae) in turfgrass using a natural
byproduct of tea oil (Camellia sp.) manufacture. Pest Management Science
66(4): 439-446. 

Zimmermann, G. (2007). Review on safety of the entomopathogenic fungus
Metarhizium anisopliae. Biocontrol Science and Technology 17(9): 879 -
920.
