This salamander is found in the subterranean streams of the Purgatory Creek system, and is only found above ground when water flow brings it to the surface. It feeds on a variety of invertebrates, including shrimp, snails, and amphipods. The Texas Blind Salamander is found only in the Balcones Escarpment of the San Marcos, Texas area.
