examined are mature, since the collectors, Arthur Clarke and Stefan Eberhard, are experienced field zoologists who collected much smaller invertebrates in the same cave systems. It is possible that juvenile stages of these two species are widely scattered in the caves (perhaps in narrower cave passages), and that adults congregate near larger streams when mating and dispersing. This behaviour would be similar to that inferred for the surface­dwelling but cryptic
