Female mating preferences in blind cave tetras Astyanax fasciatus (Characidae, Teleostei). [PDF]
The Mexican tetra Astyanax fasciatus has evolved a variety of more or less color- and eyeless cave populations. Here we examined the evolution of the female preference for large male body size within different populations of this species, either surface-

The fascinating biology of stinky caves
The discovery of Movile Cave in 1986, similarly to the discovery of the deep-sea vents 9 years earlier, showed that, when redox interfaces are present in subsurface ecosystems, diverse and abundant biological communities can thrive based primarily on autochthonous food produced in situ by chemosynthesis.

Hypogean Communities as Cybernetic Systems: Implications for the Evolution of Cave Biotas
Ramón Margalef proposed in 1968 that ecosystems could be better understood if they were viewed as cybernetic systems. I tested this hypothesis in the case of hypogean ecosystems using available pieces of evidence. I looked on how information on feedbacks,
