A new species of Lyciasalamandra, L.irfani, was described earlier this year from
Göynük Canyon, near the ranges of L.billae and L.antalyana. It was differentiated by serum proteins, coloration, and morphometry.

This forum would appear to be the most relevant area for Mertensiella, Chioglossa, and Lyciasalamandra subjects.

The journal this was published in is open access and has a fair number of herpetological papers. North-Western Journal of Zoology - Journal Home

    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?
