Dicamptodon aterrimus
The Idaho Giant Salamander, while superficially similar in appearance to the Tiger Salamander, has indistinct costal grooves and lacks foot tubercles. It has a stocker build than the Tiger Salamander and has smoother skin. It occasionally reaches the same length (13 inches) as the Tiger Salamander but is normally only 7 to 11 3/4 inches long.

Coastal Giant Salamander (Dicamptodon tenebrosus)
These salamander larva are often the most common predators in the streams where they reside, feeding off anything smaller. I was hoping to find the large adult form on land, but had no such luck. [eng] |

Dicamptodon ensatus (Pacific Giant Salamander): Narrative
The Pacific Giant Salamander is found in a variety of aquatic habitats, including lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. They prefer fast moving water to slow moving water. Cover is another vital characteristic of this Salamander's habitat. Cover is used for hiding, protection from the sun, and brooding eggs. [eng] |
