Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 05/04/2016

An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) is said to give access to 18 m of walking-sized, square-cut and hence, for some, attractive cave passage, which leads to a choke. SITUATION: Unknown or, if you prefer, somewhere in an unspecified doline (undescribed shape, unidentified dimensions, unobserved peculiar characteristics), which lies without orientation somehow »near« or, to be precise, in an unidentified spatial relation to the first Krem –>Labit, Lumshnong (Lanong 1999). CAVE DESCRIPTION: »Krem Labbit 2 … 18 m of large pleasant passage« (Jarratt 1999 Mss "Cave Log" vol. 8: 69). CAVE LIFE: Unidentified the »usual Meghalaya threshold insects« (Jarratt 2001.10.29 personal correspondence) or, more liekly, unspecified arthropods (Arthropoda).
