I received these guys just the other day and until yesterday thought that Cave salamanders and Long Tailed salamanders were the same species. Now I'm curious about if these guys are actually Cave salamanders or if they're long-tailed salamanders. Just wondering if anyone could definitively ID these guys.

They are cave salamanders. Long tailed salamanders have vertical bars on the sides of the tails.
