Cataleptoneta sengleti
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Cataleptoneta sengleti faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to limestone quarrying and cave disturbance in its restricted range. The species' extremely limited distribution makes it highly vulnerable to any environmental changes or human activities affecting its cave systems. Urban development and tourism pressure in the region further threaten the delicate cave ecosystems this spider depends upon.
Habitat
This cave-dwelling spider inhabits limestone cave systems and underground chambers in Southeast Asia. It requires stable cave environments with specific humidity and temperature conditions typical of tropical karst formations.
