Marc Staniszewski book mistake?

Looking through my newly aquired "Amphibians in Captivity" book I noticed a picture labled as an Aneides ferrus specimen displaying "unusual green tints". It appears to me to be an Aneides aeneus and even has very squared toes like the A. aeneus I keep. Can anyone verify if this is actually a A. ferrus.
Not that it really matters,it still is a great book but I was just wondering.

There are a few inaccuracies in Marc's book, which is to be expected in a text attempting to cover so much. I don't own the book personally, and don't remember if his Aneides photos were improperly captioned, but it's a common mistake and wouldn't surprise me.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
