I haven't posted pictures in a while and thought I'd share some of the finds from May, June and July. These are mainly species found close to my hometown and the surroundings. For Rana dalamatina and Alytes obstetricans I had to do more extended trips. The Alytes trip in June for sure was the most spectacular trip this year and I am very happy that me and two friends of mine were allowed to participate.
I already showed some of the pics in my facebook account, hope you still enjoy them.
Salamandra salamandra terrestris
Triturus cristatus
Ichthyosaura alpestris
I'm not so sure about this weird colored larva as there is also Lissotriton helveticus in that pond. The crest seems to be very low and the tail quite pointy.
Lissotriton spec.
Probably a young L. helveticus, as we encountered a female in one of the surrounding ponds.
