Pseudoeurycea conanti | |
Pseudoeurycea conanti is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Oaxaca, Mexico. [1] [3]
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, plantations, and heavily degraded former forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Conant's salamander is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Honduras. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss. The males in rare cases can grow a pseudo-penis.
Ixalotriton niger, the black jumping salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rocky areas and it is threatened by habitat loss.
Ixalotriton parva, the dwarf false brook salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to a small mountainous area of Mexico where its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss. There is some doubt whether this species should be classified as Pseudoeurycea parva or Ixalotriton parva.
Pseudoeurycea is a genus of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. The members of this genus are commonly known as the false brook salamanders. They are found in Mexico and Guatemala.
Pseudoeurycea anitae, commonly known as Anita's false brook salamander or Anita's salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico and only known from its type locality near San Vicente Lachixío, Oaxaca, in the Sierra Madre del Sur mountains, at about 2,100 m (6,900 ft) above sea level. The specific name anitae honors Anita Smith, a resident of Oaxaca City who helped Charles Mitchill Bogert when he was collecting in the surroundings of the city. This species might already be extinct.
Pseudoeurycea aquatica, which has been given the common name of aquatic salamander is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico and only known from its type locality in the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca near Totontepec Villa de Morelos, Oaxaca.
Pseudoeurycea brunnata is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It was formerly only found in a few disjunct populations in Guatemala and southern Mexico. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is considered a critically endangered species because population numbers have declined by more than 80% over the last 10 years.
Pseudoeurycea goebeli is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is found in Guatemala and Mexico. It's natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. These salamanders live at an elevation of 2400–2900 meters in the cloud forest. Researchers have found that their mating and spermiogenesis do not depend on temporal changes like other salamanders in that area. Another unique fact about these specific salamanders is that even though they have mating opportunities throughout the year and they are active all year, they are seasonal egg-layers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Pseudoeurycea juarezi is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae, endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea leprosa is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae, endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea longicauda is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea mixteca is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea mystax is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico and only known from the area of its type locality in the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca near Ayutla, Oaxaca. Its common name is mustache false brook salamander or mustached false brook salamander. The specific name refers to the whitish protuberances on the lips that resemble a mustache in the frontal view of the male holotype.
The muscular salamander is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Aquiloeurycea praecellens, also known as the admirable false brook salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental in Veracruz, Mexico. Its natural habitat is lowland tropical moist forest where it is threatened by habitat loss.
Pseudoeurycea smithi, commonly known as Smith's false brook salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to certain mountainous regions of Mexico. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Pseudoeurycea tlahcuiloh, commonly known as the green-flecked salamander, is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea tlilicxitl is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico.
Pseudoeurycea unguidentis is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to northern Oaxaca, Mexico, where it is known from its type locality, Cerro San Felipe in the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca, and some other mountains, although the identity of animals from these other locations is uncertain. Its common names are claw-toothed salamander, clawtooth false brook salamander, and clawtoed false brook salamander.
Pseudoeurycea werleri is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. Its common name is Werler's false brook salamander or simply Werler's salamander. It is endemic to the Sierra de los Tuxtlas range in southern Veracruz state, Mexico. Its natural habitats are tropical rainforests and cloud forests where it lives in moss mats. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by subsistence agriculture, logging, and human settlement.
