FOSSIL SALAMANDERS AND SALAMANDER ORIGINS [PDF]
American Zoologist, 1965 Recent (mostly unpublished) work indicates that the present classification of salamanders needs modification. The fossil record of salamanders has been markedly improved recently, and tends to support these conclusions, but does not offer any clues to the origin of salamanders or of the Lissamphibia as a whole. The structure of the sirenid salamanders,

Non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease associated with Mycobacterium montefiorense in salamanders
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023 IntroductionMycobacterium montefiorense is one of the causes of non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections in moray eels and salamanders. Although M. montefiorense infection could be a threat to salamanders, little information is available regarding this ...

A Triassic stem-salamander from Kyrgyzstan and the origin of salamanders [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance The origin of modern amphibians remains controversial, and especially the fossil record of salamanders remains poor. Their tiny, feeble skeletons are rarely preserved in rocks of the early Mesozoic era, the time frame in which they are believed to have originated.

A Midsummer Night’s Diet: Snapshot on Trophic Strategy of the Alpine Salamander, Salamandra atra
Diversity, 2020 Information on the trophic ecology of the Alpine salamander, Salamandra atra, is scattered and anecdotal. We studied for the first time the trophic niche and prey availability of a population from an area located in Italian Dolomites during the first ...

Palatal morphology predicts the paleobiology of early salamanders
eLife, 2022 Ecological preferences and life history strategies have enormous impacts on the evolution and phenotypic diversity of salamanders, but the yet established reliable ecological indicators from bony skeletons hinder investigations into the paleobiology of ...
