Here's some photos of an unusually colored yet very common salamander. They were given to me by a co-worker.

Ambystoma opacum maybe?

I've never seen one like that. The intriguing thing is that the coloration resembles the coloration of newly-morphed opacum, rather than adults.

I've never seen one like that either, pretty weird. Very bronze-ish.

It's an interesting salamander in any event.
