Axolotl literature

Guest
Hi, I am looking for literature about axolotls and tigersalamanders in English, German (and Swedish :) ). I am preparing a comprehensive article for the swedish herpetoculturist's paper 'Snoken' in Swedish (with an english resume)and would especially like to get hold on information about the natural history and evolution in the Ambystoma mexicanum-tigrinum complex of the anglosaxian part of America, and Mexico. If anyone has articles or information about the Mexican Ambystomatids or the history about the axolotls arrival to Europe, and axolotls and tigersalamanders in general, and would scan it and send it to me I would be in great debt. I also have a few scientific articles and text books and am willing to share this to interested. To be precise without having the list of articles here, I am looking for the Axolotl Newspaper no. 18, for instance.

Greetings
Mattias Müller

    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?
