Salamander #4

Carl Brune, February 2009

Collection: 18 May 2008

SOL
Four Pseudotriton larvae were found in a small area. They were all very similar in size and appearance. I am quite sure that they are all the same species.

A closer look at #4.

The habitat where #4 was found. A high-gradient creek has been dammed up by a large fallen log, creating an area of muck. Larvae were found both in the creek and in the muck.
