(A. jeffersonianum!)Vermont Herping April 8-9

[Cyprinidae]

Hi all! I want to share these photos from a very successful herping trip in Vermont this weekend. We found three A. jeffersonianum-- very exciting-- as well as one egg mass! Two of the three Jeffersons were potential female jeff-laterale gynogenetic hyprids, but we did find one male A. jeffersonianum! Additionally, we turned up a good number of red efts, mature N. viridecens, A. maculatum, A. laterale, H. scutatum, and P. cinereus
