Behavioral Responses of Two Common Woodland Salamanders to Novel Urban Stimuli

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 430-439, June 2026.
We examined behavioral responses of the Eastern Red‐backed Salamander (Plethodon cinereus) and Northern Ravine Salamander (P. electromorphus) to novel urban stimuli. The Northern Ravine Salamander exhibited increased thigmotaxis in the presence of concrete pavers simulating roads and walkways.
