Re: Paramesotriton longliensis

Jennifer Macke could make this happen I think.

Jiang,

You can quite legally post the English abstract to this thread - that is part of its purpose. So please do :).

Hey, I have translated an article from Chinese to English before for this forum. Although not this particular article, I dont mind to try translating one more. Although, my translation skills and biological knowledge probably not suitable to generate a good translation. However, probably is better than nothing. And someone with better knowledge in biological terminology can edit it afterward. PM me if interested.

I have an English translation of this article already. It is waiting for me to proofread it. I'll get it done ASAP. If I don't post here in a couple of days, someone kick me.

At long last, I have a full English translation of the P. longliensis paper. It was difficult due to the anatomical descriptions. Thank you to Yong Zhao and Ian Choi, who both put a lot of effort into the translation.

If you want a copy, send me an e-mail. Use the link in my profile, or write to jpmacke at comcast.net. If you post on this thread asking for a copy, I may not see your message.

There are a couple of photos in the paper. I would say that this species is not one that has ever been imported in the pet trade. I have never before seen any photos of this species, to my memory.

    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?
