<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="129">The entrance of cave Nonggong Dong is largely opened and surrounded by bushes. Its length remains unknown. There is a large room near entrance, and it is very humid and muddy. An underground stream goes along the main passage which is very deep, and some parts of the cave are interrupted by vertical shafts. The trechine beetles were collected in dark areas ca. 10-30 metres away from the entrance. Other cave animals found also in this cave were millipedes, crickets, woodlice, and bats.</paragraph>
