Hey guys just wanted to introduce myself, names Connor in an amateur wildlife enthusiast and have become quite successful in Laos with finding cataloguing cave specimens.

I became good friends with Dr peter Jager (rebound arachnologist)

I have helped collected specimens as I have been able to spend a lot of time spelunking and discovering cave systems in Laos Vang Vieng.

There is a plethora of undiscovered species in the region each system has unique fauna to the next even if in the same massif, the geographical isolation has allowed incredible speciation. I will over the weeks share some of my finds of the beautiful karst caves

This was my first discovered species of wandering spider Ctenidae. It is also the first cave dwelling amauropelma. I have discovered 4 others but the paper has not been released.

thamcon represents "Tham" as in cave in laoatian and con as first half of my forename
