These salamanders live near the cave entrance. They see well and have colored skin. They like the cave because it is moist and dark. Some salamanders live outside of caves under rocks or moist logs. Isopods have many legs that look alike.
Amphipods have legs of different shapes.
Both eat bits of leaves, moss, dead worms and other small animals that drift in the cave streams. Both of these animals belong to the crustacean family. They are usually brownish in color and have eyes. Flatworms crawl over damp areas in search for their food. They leave a sticky trail which causes isopods and amphipods to become stuck.
