The collection of Oligochaeta is certainly a central part of the collection Invertebrates 1. It merits its diversity the first curator, Wilhelm Michaelsen and contains a large number of specimens and a considerable number of types. One addition is the rich material of microscopical slides from Naidids from the collection of Reinmar Grimm.
The separation of Annelida into Clitellata in the collection Invertebrates 1 and Polychaeta in the collection Invertebrates 2 has traditional reasons.
