What is the scientific name for trout worms, or where can I find this info?

I used worms called trout worms from a bait shop in an experiment, and I have no idea how to find their scientific name

What is the scientific name for trout worms, or where can I find this info?
Trout worms are also known as jumbo panfish worms, Belgiums, Georgia jumpers, red trout worms and my favourite red wigglers (the Cadillac of worms!!)





They are a type of earthworm (Oligochaete Annelid), scientific name Eisenia veneta.





Popular as live bait because they are durable, easy to store and last for weeks in a fridge.
Reply:Maybe they are the same as nightcrawlers or earthworms?
