AB  - Phototrophic microorganisms can be found in biofilms at entrances to caves where they have access to sufficient
sunlight, water and nutrients; however, they can also be found inside caves, where they are carried by animals and people, and
can proliferate in the presence of artificial light. Although the genus Humidophila includes some well-known cosmopolitan
species, further exploration of its rare, insufficiently investigated representatives in different geographical areas and unusual
habitats is necessary. Caves remain unknown, little-explored habitats, and many species currently known to science were
recorded for the first time. This study aimed to report species belonging to the genus Humidophila that were identified in
19 caves in Serbia. A total of ten species of this genus were recorded and some of them are documented for the first time
in Serbia. The most abundant species were H. contenta (found in 16 caves), H. paracontenta, and H. aerophila (found in 13
caves), whereas H. pyrenaica was identified in only one cave. The rare species, H. brekkaensoides and H. vidalii, were also
documented and described, but with different dimensions from those provided in current identification keys.
