Cave-dwelling insects are among the most widespread and prominent troglofauna (cave-dwelling animals), including troglobites, troglophiles, and trogloxenes. As a category of ecological adaptations, such insects are significant in many senses, ecological, evolutionary, and physiological.
The cave-dwelling animals were found “under large rocks,” researchers said. ... It turned out to be a new species. Researchers ventured into Baiyan Cave to survey local wildlife in 2020, ...
Cave dwelling animals show different levels of adaptations to underground environment. According to a recent classification, animals living in terrestrial subterranean habitats can be classified into 3 categories, based on their ecology: troglobionts (or troglobites): species strongly bound to subterranean habitats;
The creatures were found in “absolutely lightless” areas of forest caves, researchers said. ‘Giant’ cave-dwelling creature — carrying 6 eggs — found in Ecuador. It’s a new species
Troglofauna are small cave-dwelling animals that have adapted to their dark surroundings. Troglofauna and stygofauna are the two types of subterranean fauna (based on life-history). Both are associated with subterranean environments – troglofauna are associated with caves and spaces above the water table and stygofauna with water.
The silver-eyed animal was one of two new species found in the rocky forest, researchers said. ‘Dwarf’-like clawed creature found lurking in caves of India. It’s a new species
