Brilliant pictures Giacomo, welcome to the forum :)
I particularly liked the gravid aurorae, beautiful creatures indeed.

Very nice! Some of those species we almost never see, so I really appreciate seeing those photos. And the photos of the animals we do see were beautiful anyhow, very nice to see them in the wild!

Giacomo, you got PM concerning the aurorae!

Great species indeed! I've only seen such a Salamandrina once before in a publication from Lanza... looks incredible.
