Well, since i absolutely love this species...why not? xD

I only keep:
-4.2.X Cynops pyrrhogaster sasayamae (where the "x" means undetermined number of larvae and eggs xD)

I really hope to explore with other subspecies in the future....they are all fascinating.

I try to collect animals with locality data as much as possible. Besides that I rather speak about a location (for example a Prefecture) than the so called races. Offcourse a lot of types look very much the same, but in a Prefecture it can be very different also.

Well, a lot of forms do look a like, so if the locality data isn't known, it's hard to say. Japan has 47 prefectures, and just 2 or 3 prefectures have no pyrrhogasters. Determine by photo's isn't reliable for a lot of forms. But adding some pics is no problem at all.

Here you can see the differences between 2 so called 'Hiroshima races'. The brownish animal is from Kagawa prefecture.

Beautiful pics, I would love to see them also in the social group, along with others.

I also hope for more members, there are now 8 of us. I'm curious how many different pyrrhogasters are in the hobby, so please join!
