Hello all. I was wondering if there is a good Salamandra reference available. Locality/subspecies information, etc. Thanks in advance...

The caudata reference is the only one I know of, but it is so generic that it is hard to glean much information. There is a great need for a compiled description of species/subspecies and range maps.

Yes, there is s real need for this and it would be a great stimulus for captive bred Salamandra development outside of Europe.

I agree Steve, and not for just outside of Europe either.

    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?
