Hello everyone! I have been herping in SE Michigan for a few weeks now with the intent on finding A. Tigrinum or any Ambystoma larvae. So far I haven't found any I've found tons of Ambystoma laterale, Plethodon cinereus, and various frogs and toads but that's about it.
I've been mainly flipping logs in forested areas and using a dip net in vernal pools. In the water, all I've found is tons and tons of tadpoles, but no salamander larvae. I haven't really been wading into the pools, is it necessary to get farther from the shore? Is it too late in the season to encounter A. Tigrinum adults above ground?
Thanks for any suggestions!
