About the Group
Among the planet's most unknown
ecosystems are subetrranean systems.
Every year, dozens of new species
from these environments have been
described, which shows how much there
is still to discover.
However, unfortunately, these systems
are also among the most threatened,
especially by numerous human activities.
The Center for Studies on Subterranean
Biology brings together researchers and
students with a single goal: to explore,
discover and describe the Brazilian
subterranean biodiversity.
Know our work, and be taken in
by the enchantment of this life so peculiar and unique.
