- •
Interactions of leaf litter and soil quality were tested on endogeic earthworms.
- •
PLS path modeling was used to separate inter-correlated explanatory variables.
- •
Leaf litter quality effects dominated in soil of the nutrient-poor site.
- •
Endogeic earthworms do not depend on microbial biomass but on leaf litter quality.
