Presence of Salamandra salamandra in Romanian caves;
R. Ianc, A.Ş. Cicort-Lucaciu, D. Ilieş & É.H. Kovács, 2012. Note on the presence of Salamandra salamandra (Amphibia) in caves from Padurea Craiului Mountains, Romania. NORTH-WESTERN JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY Vol.8, No.1, pp.202-203.

Non-geographical variation of Salamandra salamandra in the central Balkans;
N. Labus, T.D. Vukov, K. Ljubisavljević & G. Džukić, 2012. Morphological variability without geographical structuring in the fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra, Salamandridae) from the Central Balkans. NORTH-WESTERN JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY Vol.8, No.1, pp.92-98

And descriptions of Lyciasalamandra arikani and Lyciasalamandra yehudahi;
B. Göçmen & B. Akman, 2012. Lyciasalamandra arikani n. sp. & L. yehudahi n. sp. (Amphibia: Salamandridae), two new Lycian salamanders from Southwestern Anatolia. NORTH-WESTERN JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY Vol.8, No.1, pp.181-194.

These two species were discovered as new populations between the ranges of L.l.finikensis, and L.billae plus the recently described L.irfani. This seems to be comparable to distributions of various western plethodonts, in which numerous parapatric species are confined to pockets of suitable valley or mountain habitat in otherwise inhospitable and rugged terrain. Morphological and biogeographical comparisons were made, but biochemical data were limited to protein electrophoretic comparisons.
Plus other papers of interest:
