Cave length: 800 m
Vertical range: -14/+90 m
Exploration: Guizhou 2000, Guizhou 2001
Surveyors: L. Latella, R Zorzin (12 Oct. 2000)
Type of research: hydrogeological, physicalchemical analyses, biological, archaeological
Cave description:
The cave opens with a large entrance at the contact between the limestone and the impermeable formations below. It is the sink for one of the main rivers that run in the area north of Honglin Town. Part of the ceiling near the entrance has collapsed, forming a natural bridge below which, about 30 m above the subterranean river bed, we discovered a monogenic conglomerate similar to that of Pudding-Stone cave. The collapse shaft opens between the school and the ex police station, it has been used for a long time as a waste disposal area. Inside the cave there are several defence devices walls. The cave ends in a siphon located near a calcitic curtain. During the expeditions “Guizhou 2002” and “Guizhou 2003” Tinopal and Fluorescein were used as dyes to follow the subterranean river.

The Verona Museum research in China caves led to a record in the field of an higth number of taxa. Some of them have not yet been identified at the species level, some were already studied, and some are still in study. In this paper, after a brief history of biospeleological research in China, the list of fauna collected in each cave is provided. An ecological and biogeografical analysis on cave fauna of the investigated Provinces is provided. 24 pages, 14 photos, 1 map.
