Spermatophore Formation in Desmognathus ochrophaeus (Amphibia: Plethodontidae)
Copeia, 1985The relationship between cloacal gland secretion and spermatophore structure is described for Desmognathus ochrophaeus. The spermatophore cap consists of spermatozoa and of granular and globular secretions. Upon initial formation of the cap, these materials are mixed.

External nasal gland morphology of Eurycea bislineata (Amphibia, Urodela, Plethodontidae)
Journal of Morphology, 2022Abstract Plethodontid salamanders possess numerous courtship glands. Previous studies have shown that the glands are more prominent in male individuals than females, and often experience periods of atrophy and hypertrophy throughout the year that correlate to the nonmating and mating seasons, respectively.

Arboreal Ecology of Plethodontidae: A Review
Copeia, 2016Lungless salamanders in the family Plethodontidae are widely distributed and the most diverse lineage of caudates. Plethodontids occupy forested and freshwater habitats, where they can achieve remarkable abundance and biomass. The majority of tropical plethodontids are arboreal.

The Origin of the Lungless Salamanders (Amphibia: Plethodontidae)
The American Naturalist, 1989It has been generally accepted that lunglessness in plethodontid salamanders results from a selection for increased ballast in aquatic, Late Cretaceous ancestors that inhabited fast-moving, cool Appalachian mountain brooks. However, late Mesozoic mountain-stream environments consistent with that scenario were probably absent from the region: geological

The complete mitochondrial genome of Batrachoseps nigriventris (Caudata: Plethodontidae)
Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2015Batrachoseps nigriventris was classified in order Caudata, family Plethodontidae. In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of B. nigriventris, which was 17 403 bp in length. With a base composition of 33.5%A, 30.9%T, 21.4%C, and 14.2%G, this genome contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 23 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), 2 ...

Two new species of Chiropterotriton (Caudata: Plethodontidae) from northern Mexico
Zootaxa, 2015Species of the genus Chiropterotriton are distributed through much of northern and eastern Mexico. The genus has presented taxonomic difficulties, with a number of species waiting to be described. We describe two new species, Chiropterotriton cieloensis sp. nov. and Chiropterotriton infernalis sp.

Retinofugal projections in salamanders of the family Plethodontidae
Cell and Tissue Research, 1986A comparison of the retinofugal projections in 14 species of plethodontid salamanders by means of the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) technique revealed almost identical contralateral projections. In all species studied three optic tracts were found. Behind the chiasma opticum the basal optic tract runs to the peduncle region, there forming the basal ...

The mental gland of Bolitoglossa nicefori (Caudata: Plethodontidae)
Amphibia-Reptilia, 2009Abstract The mental gland of the plethodontid salamander Bolitoglossa nicefori was examined by macroscopic observation and light microscopy and compared with morphological descriptions of other species of Plethodontidae. The mental gland is an oval shaped pad which develops exclusively in reproductive males.
