- Title:
- The Taxonomic Status of the Rough-Skinned Newt, Taricha granulosa (Skilton), in the Rocky Mountains
- Creator:
- Nussbaum, Ronald A.; Brodie Jr., Edmund D.
- Date Created:
- 1971-09
- Description:
- A disjunct population of Taricha granulosa from Latah County, Idaho was compared with two Washington populations, one Oregon population, and the data in Riemer's monograph of the genus Taricha. Idaho specimens are most similar in pigmentation and body proportions to specimens from the southern end of the species range. It is suggested that the Idaho T. granulosa were introduced into the area from the southern portion of the species range.
