After 2 years of work of the 30 CAWEB team members (Italian Spiders,Pedro Cardoso cardosopmb.bsky.social,Pavel Kozlov et al.), the first continental database of subterranean #spider communities is finally out in BDJournal: bdj.pensoft.net/article/38492/ Hopefully it will foster some subterranean macroecology!

¿SABÍAS QUÉ...? En #Jaén tenemos la única cueva declarada como Reserva Entomológica de Europa... gracias a los trabajos que hemos realizado desde el G.E.V. y la administración Junta Jaén Consejería de Sostenibilidad y Medio Ambiente Junta de Andalucía Consejería AgriPesca soledad aranda #Espeleologia Fundación Biodiversidad

CURIOSIDADES SUBTERRÁNEAS: Hoy traemos una hormiga con hábitos subterráneos. Este bello y raro insecto es común verlo en algunas cavidades de #Jaén... y es que el Jaén subterráneo es único. #Espeleologia cronicasdefauna Orgullosos de Jaén @info_conama COAMBA APIA

Aquí tenéis una de las muchas fotografías que podéis admirar en la exposición organizada por BioFoto homenaje a los 40 años del G.E. Villacarrillo Simplemente increíble

Just started this list as there does not seem to be one yet. Debated whether to make it more specific ie one for us cave biology folks, one for archeology, geology etc. Its a place to start. x.com/i/lists/127652…
