Been fascinated with Eurycea this last week or so and started looking into the more uncommon species. I see that there are quite a few neotenic species endemic to the areas near/around south-central TX that live in springs and their outflows. I know a most of them are under ESA protection but E. troglodytes, latitans, pterophila, and neotenes are not. Are those species able to be legally caught and kept? Has anyone done so before (with or without permits)? Would it be possible to breed them?
