Metapheretima is a genus of annelid earthworms belonging to the family Megascolecidae, erected by Wilhelm Michaelsen in 1928.[1] Species have been recorded mostly from Asia, Australia and Pacific Islands.[2]

This genus is similar to Pheretima and other "Pheretimoid" genera (also including Amynthas, Archipheretima, Duplodicodrilus, Metaphire, Pithemera and Polypheretima). They form an important ecological and taxonomic group in the Oriental region.[3][4]
