Comparative Morphology and Mechanics of Aquatic and Terrestrial Feeding Salamanders

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 9, September 2026.
Jaw muscle size, bite force, and skull strength are driven by multiple factors, not just the difference between the two habitats. Necturus produces higher bite forces than Salamandra, but the stress distribution is less even in Necturus, suggesting Salamandra's skull shape is better adapated to resist feeding loads.

Prevalence of the novel amphibian pathogen Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans in Europe and its relationship to host richness and density

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.
Policy implications. These results suggest that conserving salamander species could reduce Bsal transmission and Bsal‐induced salamander population declines. Given that Bsal is a generalist pathogen that will be challenging to eliminate, conserving amphibian diversity should help to reduce Bsal prevalence and loads and thus protect highly susceptible ...

Melanism in salamanders: effects of insularity, sex and size on dorsal colouration in Salamandra salamandra

Journal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 4, Page 340-352, August 2026.
In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Replace, reduce, refine: A review of animal use in Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans research

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Animal experimentation is common in wildlife disease research. Understanding the impact of this often‐lethal approach is therefore a critical line of inquiry at the intersection of animal welfare and conservation biology. The discovery of the pathogenic salamander chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) in 2013 ignited a large ...

Outcomes With Finerenone by Baseline Treatment Goals in Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease: A FIDELITY Analysis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 6022-6033, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims The American Diabetes Association recommends achieving treatment goals (glycated haemoglobin ≤ 53 mmol/mol [7.0%], blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol < 1.81 mmol/L and use of sodium–glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors or glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists), to reduce cardiovascular and kidney ...

Feuersalamander - Salamandra salamandra

, 2014
Der Feuersalamander (Salamandra salamandra) ist eine von 18 in Sachsen vorkommenden Amphibienarten. Dieser Schwanzlurch kann etwa 20 cm lang werden und ist mit seiner gelben Flecken- oder Streifenzeichnung auf schwarzem Grund unverwechselbar. Diese signalisiert seinen Feinden, dass er nicht genießbar ist, denn auf seiner Haut befinden sich Drüsen, aus ...
