Abbreviations, acronynms and symbols used: † = topographic name from map or gazetteer – it is possible that there isn't a cave at these locations. Alt.: - altitude BCRA – British Cave Research Association SMCC – Shepton Mallet Caving Club, UK SSAPO - Société Spéléologique de l'Ariège-Pays d'Olmes, France UIS – Union Internationale de Spéléologie VR – vertical range of the cave.

Dunkley (1995) Khao Thalu RB0067 47P 565620 1513965 Alt.: 100 m Wat Tham Mongkut, Pak Chong Length: 20 m The hole through the hill is very obvious when driving into the temple. The arch is about 10 m wide, 30 m high and about 20 m long.

The cave in an arboretum and there is a 10 baht entrance fee (5 baht for children). A flight of steps leads to the entrance and another flight down inside so that the cave is more or less level with the plain outside. The impressive, well decorated 20 m wide and 8-10 m high main passage appears to be a relict of a major stream and contains evidence of occasional standing water. At the southern end a large daylight hole opens into a 25 m diameter chamber dominated by an 8 m reclining Buddha. The cave is a bat roost. The following fauna has been recorded from the cave:- Digena:- Anchitrema sanguineum (Sansio, 1894) Coleoptera:- Type locality for Dichillus kuschstaberi Kaszab, 1980 Bats:- Taphozous melanopogon Temminck, 1841 Taphozous theobaldi Dobson, 1872 Megaderma lyra Geoffroy, 1810 Hipposideros armiger armiger (Hodgson, 1835) Hipposideros bicolor Temminck, 1834 Hipposideros larvatus (Horsfield, 1823) The cave has little propsect of extension and is in a small limestone hill.


In the year 1895 H.M. King Chulalongkorn and H.M. Queen Sri Bajarindra made a royal visit there and they liked the beauty of this cave very much thus giving a new name, Tham Chom Pon or Field Marshal Cave. On the 23 March 1978 H. Kusch and I. Staber visited the cave and caught the holotype of Dichillus kuschstaberi Kaszab, 1980. Aggimarangsee (1992); Ashayagachat (2008); Boutin (1971); Deharveng et al.

Tham Fa Tho RB0008 47P 583861 1500841 Khao Ngu, Ko Phlapphla Length: 50 m Located at the southern end of the Khao Ngu range, 7 km west of Ratchaburi. Tham Fa Tho is near the top of the hill. This is the smallest of the Khao Ngu caves. The cave is a corridor 3 to 4 m high, about 3 m wide and the main part is 12 m long. There is an 8.2 m long reclining Buddha carved in situ on the left side as one enters the cave. This dates to the Dvaravati period and the Buddha was covered with stucco. Only fragments of the halo remain today, along with parts of the Sala tree. There is also a bas-relief of three worshippers, 2.6 m, 2.3 m and 1.5 m high, carved at the same level as the Buddha's head, on the right side of the entrance. The cave was closed by a wall decorated with ceramics during the late Ayutthaya-early bangkok period and the worshippers appeared when the wall was removed in 1975. Some attempt is being made to preserve this cave in the face of extensive quarrying along the range which has already reached within 30-40 m, but the interior is covered with limestone dust. The cave was explored and surveyed by Claude Chabert and Claude Mouret on 27 December 1992. Anon.

On the surface there is parking, picnic areas, stalls and an office. The cave is electrically lit and is basically one very wide cavern divided into profusely decorated chambers by curtains and dense clusters of small stalactites. The last chamber is particularly impressive.

Round and B. Dobias when the type specimen of Psiloderces howarthi Deeleman-Reinhold, 1995 plus specimens of Uthina ratchaburi Huber, 2011 and Pholcus sudhami Huber, 2011 were collected. Huber (2011) has the date for this trip as 26 August 1981, but Stone was collecting in caves in Kanchanaburi on 22 July and was in Chiang Mai on the 16 August, so the July date seems most likely. P.R. and C.L. Deeleman visited the cave on 10 March 1986 and the type specimen of Uthina ratchaburi Huber, 2011 was collected along with Psiloderces howarthi Deeleman-Reinhold, 1995.

At the northern end of the chamber, a climb up with a 5 m wooded ladder leads to a small chamber which contained a very high concentration of bats. The passage was not explored because of collisions with the bats. The west gallery runs into a where a diffuse light comes from a beautiful 30 m aven to the surface.
