Beautiful cave, both from the speleological and hydrogeological and biospeleological point of view. Its phreatic tunnels have a very characteristic section and also the river and the inner lakes are an attractive spectacle.
From the biospeleological point of view, we must citate the Diplopoda Plectogona angustum
of which have been described different subspecies; this is a taxonomical problem that the author want solve in the futur since he will specialize in this group; the Trechinae Duvalius pecoudi and Agostinia launoi and a numerous colony of Rhinolophus hypposideros.BIBLIOGRAPHY |
