  • China has enormous caves with diverse cave organisms. Many cave creatures have small population size and limited distribution. Therefore, the traditional survey on cave fauna may harm some rare or endangered cave species. Its low efficiency could also restrict the studies of cave biodiversity and conservation. As an emerging survey method, environmental DNA (eDNA) can be used to extract the trace DNA of cave organisms from the environment and to qualitatively or quantitatively investigate the cave biodiversity with the technology such as PCR. After reviewing the principles of eDNA, its advantages and current research status, we put forward a basic process for the application of eDNA in cave biological surveys. We expect that the eDNA can play an important role in future studies of biospeleology in China. To achieve this aim, a thorough database of DNA barcodes and a classic taxonomy for Chinese cave organisms are urgently needed.
