An annotated chromosome-level genome of a troglophilic spider (Pimoa clavata). [PDF]
Sci DataClimatic upheavals throughout Earth's history have driven species to subterranean refugia, where stable microclimates buffer environmental extremes. The spider family Pimoidae, relict lineages sensitive to thermal fluctuations, exemplifies this climate-driven habitat transition.

Complete mitochondrial genome of a troglophile Cydnidae (Hemiptera) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2019 The complete mitochondrial genome of a specimen of Cydnidae was shotgun sequenced and each partition was characterized. This genome, with 15,289 bp in length, has all of the 37 genes commonly found in metazoan mitochondrial genomes: two for ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 22 for transfer RNAs (tRNAs), and 13 for proteins.

Troglophilic Moths in Australia: First Record of a Self‐sustaining Population [PDF]
Australian Journal of Entomology, 1994 ABSTRACTRecords of moths from Australian caves are scanty, and the paucity of accompanying biological data has not allowed the existence of self‐sustaining troglophilic populations to be confirmed. We report a self‐sustaining population of guanophilic pyralids (Pyralis manihotalis Guenée) from a tropical cave in North Queensland, the first ...

Complete mitochondrial genomes of three troglophile cave spiders (Mesabolivar, pholcidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2018 In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of three Mesabolivar specimens found in the interior of N4E_0023 cave from Serra Norte (Carajás), Parauapebas (Brazil). The three mitogenomes contain 14,941, 14,845 and 14,727 bp, and GC content of 29.41%, 31.68% and 29.34%, respectively.

Caves as microrefugia: Pleistocene phylogeography of the troglophilic North American scorpion Pseudouroctonus reddelli [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2014 Survival in microrefugia represents an important paradigm in phylogeography for explaining rapid postglacial re-colonization by species in temperate regions. Microrefugia may allow populations to persist in areas where the climatic conditions on the surface have become unfavourable.

Brazilian Troglophilic Biodiversity: a neglected fauna in conservation actions
Biota NeotropicaAbstract Subterranean or hypogean habitats, despite colonization filters, can harbor high biodiversity with unique fauna and significant endemism. Traditionally, this biodiversity is categorized into Trogloxenes (organisms using the hypogean realm as shelters and frequently exiting to complete their life cycle), Troglophiles (“facultative cave-dwellers”

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 ...

Iranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2016 The present study reports on the first troglophilic terrestrial isopod from Iran. Protracheoniscus faramarzi n. sp. was found in Shafagh Cave, southern Iran. The new species is described and its diagnostic characters are figured. This species is distinguished by the long and narrow antennae, the reduced body pigmentation and the number of ...
