1st Caucasian Symposium on Subterranean Biology
June 16, 2023 - June 17, 2023
The 1st Caucasian Symposium on Subterranean Biology is organized by the cave biologists’ team of Ilia State University, Tbilisi, Georgia and will be held at Ilia State University, Tbilisi, Georgia on 16th and 17th June, 2023.
The symposium will be organized by the financial support of the National Geographic Society project entitled: “Revealing the subterranean biodiversity of Georgia”.
Participants will have oral presentations online (using Zoom software) or onsite at the above-mentioned venue. Presentations will be on different topics. Such as Taxonomy, systematics, biodiversity, ecology, conservation, biogeography, evolution, etc. Unfortunately, subterranean organisms are poorly investigated in the Caucasus region. This is a first attempt to start a series of the Caucasian Symposium on Subterranean Biology to establish a network of the cave biologists interested in the Caucasian cave biology.
