Variability of Seasonal Trophic Niche in Two Sympatric Salamanders: Italian Cave Salamanders and Fire Salamanders

Herpetologica
The trophic niche is one of the most important ecological traits for any species, providing information about trophic position in the food web, habitat preferences, and interspecific interactions. In this study, we describe the autumn diet of two sympatric species of salamander from central Italy—Italian Cave Salamanders (Speleomantes italicus) and ...

Woodland salamander response to two prescribed fires in the central Appalachians

Forest Ecology and Management, 2010
Using coverboard arrays, we monitored woodland salamanders on the Fernow Experimental Forest in the central Appalachian Mountains, West Virginia, USA prior to and following two prescribed fires in mixed oak (Quercus spp.) forest stands. Treatments were burn plots on upper slopes or lower slopes fenced to prevent white-tailed deer (Odocoileus ...

Variability of alkaloids in the skin secretion of the European fire salamander (Salamandra salamadra terrestris)

Toxicon, 2005
The two major alkaloids, samandarine and samandarone, were identified in the skin secretion of individual specimens from two populations of the European fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra terrestris) by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. High intraspecific variability in the ratio of both alkaloids was observed, but also in individual specimens ...

Long-term consequences of early nutritional conditions on the behaviour and growth of fire salamanders

Amphibia-Reptilia, 2016
Early developmental conditions can have a strong influence on the life history. Fire salamanders represent an interesting system due to their biphasic life cycle consisting of an aquatic larval stage and a subsequent terrestrial stage. The environment experienced as larvae affects growth, age at metamorphosis and behaviour.

Isolation and Identification of Alkaloids from Poisons of Fire Salamanders (Salamandra salamandra)

Journal of Natural Products, 2019
Fire salamanders ( Salamandra salamandra) are conspicuously colored amphibians secreting a skin poison that contains unique steroid alkaloids such as samandarine (1) and samadarone (2), exhibiting toxic as well as antimicrobial activities. Because of their antipredatory and anti-infectious functions, alkaloids from Salamandra poison are of interest ...

The conspicuous postmetamorphic coloration of fire salamanders, but not their toxicity, is affected by larval background albedo

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, 2019
AbstractExperimental work in the early 20th century showed that background albedo experienced by larvae of the fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) induce a durable morphological modification of the postmetamorphic color pattern, which needed confirmation due to the controversies regarding Paul Kammerer's experiments.
