Found under rocks in Douglas-fir Forest
Found just off the trail under a flat piece of woody debris.
melanistic form
This was under my boot when I stepped back after looking at some moss. It seemed ok. Is it a baby rough skinned newt?
I found this salamander (plethodon vehiculum) under a log after dark (~9:45 pm) on a biology field trip to Camp Long near Seattle. The salamander had a stripe down its back and the log was on the side of the trail in close proximity to a pond. I estimated its size to be around 9 cm.
