Heterochrony, cannibalism, and the evolution of viviparity in Salamandra salamandra.
The way in which novelties that lead to macroevolutionary events originate is a major question in evolutionary biology, and one that can be addressed using the fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) as a model system. It is exceptional among amphibians in displaying intraspecific diversity of reproductive strategies. In S. salamandra, two distinct modes of reproduction co-occur: the common mod...
متن کاملColor vision in salamander larvae.
In behavioral experiments using monochromatic prey-patterns, larval salamanders (Salamandra salamandra) are able to discriminate colored from white light. In the retina only blue-yellow opponent-color ganglion cells were recorded. Thus the color vision in these animals is dichromatic.
متن کاملDeleterious effects by mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) on the endangered fire salamander (Salamandra infraimmaculata)
Invasive fishes, via competition and predation, may be an important factor in endangering populations of amphibians and other aquatic fauna. The mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis, commonly stocked into amphibian breeding sites for mosquito control worldwide, has recently been found in some breeding sites of the endangered fire salamander Salamandra infraimmaculata in northern Israel. A comparison ...

متن کاملThe metamorphosis of feeding kinematics in Salamandra salamandra and the evolution of terrestrial feeding behavior
The striking similarity between aquatic feeding behaviors in fishes and tetrapods and terrestrial prey transports in tetrapods and their contrasts to terrestrial tongue projection kinematics have led to a general hypothesis that terrestrial prey capture evolved from terrestrial prey transport, which, in turn, evolved from aquatic feeding behavior. This hypothesis is examined in Salamandra salam...
