Will, I was wondering about the spotted pattern. My encounters with adults of this species have been few but I don't recall females with such spots. Do you think it's a male?

if it it lissotriton (triturus) vulgaris then it's illegal to even handle them in sweden. so i hope that it's something else.

sorry Ester, missed your post, i don't know what sex it is but to me it looks like a male. also there are no other lissotriton in sweden, so it has to be vulgaris.
