The entrance of the cave is small and narrow (Fig. 5 A), its tunnel is almost vertical at first and gradually becomes flatter, with several branches and several pools. The full extent of the cave could not be explored because of oxygen deficiency and the narrow passages. The individual of J. maotiani sp. nov. was collected on the ground in moist and gravelly areas. Other creatures found also inside the same cave were Sitotroga sp. (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) (Fig. 5 C), Myotis sp. (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) (Fig. 5 D), Glyphiulus sp.
