The most attractively patterned species?

[jbherpin]

This is a thread designed for amusement only. I just wanted to see how diverse the preferences are! I hope everyone can have a little fun submitting their vote! (This is not a "site sponsored" vote) For me...Juvenile N.V.V.(The Red Eft), this is a simply amazingly beautiful creature! Well, that's my vote...How about your's?

I vote for Neurergus kaiseri, even people who don't care for newts can enjoy that kind of beauty. Pseudotriton ruber can be nice too.

 

[Jacquie]

Cynops pyrrhogaster gets my vote.

 

[Greatwtehunter]

Ambystoma annulatum gets my vote, but then again I am biased towards any Ambystoma species.

I agree N.kaiseri has a special quality that can reach even mentally healthy people.
My vote however goes for three other species(i can´t just pick one), the recently discovered beauty of C.pyrrhogaster, phryticus and....wait for it...........Lissotriton vulgaris! Yes, i find them incredibly beautiful.....

Kaiseri are beautiful, probably my all time favorites but I think some Salamandra are as pretty as anything...

I'm with Justin on this one. A. annulatum. Very striking. Ooh, or A. macrodactylum, love the racing stripes. Also a big fan of Plethodon yonahlossee.

My roommate suggests Desmognathus wrighti's herringbone pattern, or the P. glutinosis complex.

I may be a little biased because they are all I have at the moment, hehe...and nobody has voted for them yet: C. Orientalis :happy:
