SULAWESI 94

---

In September and October 1995 a team from the CIRS, Ragusa, comprising Saro Ruggieri, Iolanda Galletti, Giancarlo Zaccaria, Giorgio Sammito, Orazio Guarrasi and Enzo Scrofani, together with Fathoel Arifin and Iwan Santo­sa from the Indonesian Speleological Federa­tion carried out a speleological survey of the southern sector of the island of Sulawesi with the aim of examining the Karst potential of some carbonate outcrops present in that area. Asa result of a preliminary survey eight Karst caves were explored and studied. These caves were located in four different areas of the island and some certainly merit further inve­stigation. A particularly promising area for further research and discovery would certain­ly seem to be Maros where, in the heart of the dense rain-forest an advanced Karst land­scape is to be found. Here the expedition ex­plored several deep wells and some doline from 150 to 270 metres deep. Another interesting result of the survey has been the collection of hypogean fauna; certain of these cave-dwelling animals are now beingstudied.
