A. Tigrinum

I'm not sure if these are A. tigrinum or A. mavortium, as the source is unknown.

Thanks Joan, is there a way to distinguish A. Tigrinum from A. Mavortium?
 
looking at pictures of the two I think that Ambystoma mavortiums are barred tigers
 
Barred tigers are one (of several) subspecies of A. mavortium. I don't think there is any way to distinguish tigrinum from mavortium unless one knows where the animal came from geographically (or unless the coloration is very distinctive of a particular subspecies).
 
What about size, can you distinguish them by size or are they the same size?

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
