Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2019 Next to Emil G. Racovitza, the great explorer, scholar and founder of biospeleology, the “second father” of Romanian speleology must necessarily be the geologist Marcian Bleahu, tireless researcher of the karst and promoter of the schoolof physical ...

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Cave microbiomes represent a rich yet understudied source of chemical diversity with biotechnological properties. Microorganisms in these environments thrive under extreme conditions such as darkness, oligotrophy, and high concentrations of inorganic matter like iron ore.

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.Cave habitats strongly filter functional traits, constraining the diversity of terrestrial isopod communities along the epigean–hypogean gradient. Functional turnover decreases while richness differences increase in hypogean systems, reflecting uneven occupation of trait space rather than simple trait replacement.

Underground Karst Morphology (Speleology)
, 2021 The peculiarity of karst is evident in the appearance of underground karst forms—caves. Caves are natural cavities in the rock mass large enough for a person to “enter”. The structure of karst can be compared to “Swiss cheese” ; it is full of voids, but only some are visible on the surface. The quantity of the voids (caves) depends on the thickness and
