Hello everybody!

I want to ask you, if there is a possibility to differentiate the sexes of Plethodon glutinosus outside the breeding season? Thank you for your help!!!

Bye

Outside of breeding season, it may be difficult or impossible. There is some info here:

A photo of the "mental gland" is here:
