Abstract:
Groundwater depletion is a significant
global issue, but its impact
on the often-enigmatic subterranean
biodiversity and its conservation
remains poorly understood.
In the Western Ghats biodiversity
hotspot of India, poor governance
of groundwater resources is threatening
its evolutionarily distinct subterranean
freshwater fauna, some
taxa of which representGondwanan
relics.
