Interesting. Is this one of the A,B,C or D species that are finally being given names? Or is this a totally new species?

Blackhawk
 
I doubt if its a A, B, C, or D after reading the abstract. The new species seems to be very similar to P. brevipes, except for some craniological differences. Colouration is the same as P. brevipes (pale with black dots), which as far as I know is not characteristic for any of the A etc species.

Expect more new species to come!

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
