Dear Sirs,

last Sunday I noticed in a pond in south Italy (Campania region, at 600
meters above sea level) some salamanders/newts (about 7 cm long) and I
photographed them. I would be really grateful to you if you could help
me to identify them. I am not a specialist in your field (I am a chemist).Here below you can find some links I realized with the photos
of the animals I told you.

It's much easier if you upload them here:

Select the files from your computer
click on 'upload'
 
They look like Triturus carnifex (Italian crested newt)
