  1. A study on a large population of Japanese giant salamanders - one of the largest amphibians in the world - reveals that above a certain size, a spectacular transition occurs in the diet of this species, propelling it to the top of the river food chain.

  2. Happy Gradius Day! I'll be firing up my old #MSX and playing Nemesis 2 and possibly Salamander. #Gradius

    Looking forward to the Switch version

  3. This Salamanders Techmarine is the last of the characters and a late addition thanks to some points changes. I made a servo harness to represent the new techmarine format, combining a servitor loadout with a marine backpack 😄 #warhammer40k #badabwar #techmarine #kitbash #spacemarines

  4. Excellent signage at the towel hut at Lake Mohonk. There's a healthy population of eastern newts (Notophthalmus viridescens) at the beachfront and kids love to capture them in their buckets. #NewYork #NewPaltz #mohonk #lakes #art #salamanders #newts #nature

  7. In Deutschland leben 21 Amphibienarten. 🐸

    Während manche eher unauffällig gefärbt sind, haben andere kräftige und bunte Färbungen – wie zum Beispiel der im Mai ganz blaue Moorfrosch oder der schwarz-gelb gefärbte Feuersalamander. Auch in ihrer Lebensweise und Verbreitung gibt es viele große Unterschiede.

    Hier findet ihr die heimischen Arten in Einzelporträts ⬇️

  8. Jackdaw and saltwater crocodile, by far! Both belong to the group Archosauria (which also once contained all the jackdaw's dinosaur ancestors), and have a common ancestor about 250 million years ago. They're actually more closely related to each other than either of them is to any lizard - yes, a crocodile is more closely related to a bird than to a lizard.

    A gecko is precisely as closely related to a salamander as you are, dear reader, at least assuming you're human. Modern mammals and reptiles are both amniotes, a lineage that diverged from that of the modern amphibians way back in the Carboniferous, some 320 million years ago. Amniotes pioneered all the cool features that allowed vertebrates to start living far inland: They got rid of the gill-breathing young stage, developed thicker keratinized (and no longer water-permeable) skin, and developed shelled eggs that could be laid on dry land rather than the gel-based eggs amphibians lay in water. The last common ancestor of a gecko and a salamander is *the same animal* as the last common ancestor of a human being and a salamander.

    That said: Modern amphibians have evolved just as much since then as we amniotes have, and they have a lot of weird innovations that amniotes never came up with. Frogs are perhaps the most specialized jumping vertebrate of all. There are salamanders that have no lungs and breathe entirely through their skin! And some have independently ditched the tadpole stage and hatch as little "froglets" ... a few species have even adapted to bearing live young rather than laying eggs at all.

    (One niche modern amphibians have largely left to us amniotes is ... vegetarianism. There is only one known species of herbivorous amphibian in the world.)

  9. The next mixed intercessor squad is almost finished, some freehand is missing and I'm in need of some heart circle transfer for my Lamenters. I'm excited to get more squads done for my badab war force so I can hit my opponents with an assault of colour 😂 #badabwar #lamenters40k #salamanders40k
