they dont appear to be in chains-they look more singular but laid in a clump-my guess is frog, and not bufo for sure.

Man I have been trying since I was a kid (im 35 now) to find some salamander eggs...every spring going out and wading in muck and mud just to be let down....can anyone help?I moved back to North Carolina and donated my Tiger and Spotted salamanders to USF,and now I miss them all....If some one has any eggs,larvae or adults for that matter let me know.
Thanks,
Everett

Look for individually laid eggs, smaller than these, folded into leaves.

Ester, you are talking European haha, in the USA Ambystoma lay clumps of eggs.
Everett, please get a good book on salamanders of the US and Canada (like Petranka's work) that also pictures the eggs, it will help!

Notophthalmus lay thier eggs individually folded in leaves and he is well within thier range.
I do agree that aquiring a good reference text like Petranka's book would help a lot.
I also believe that those are frog eggs....

HI i live in south carolina and i just found a couple of big groups of salamander eggs they looked different to me because they were green on the inside you are welcome to some a lot of them have hatched they seemed to change to white before they hatched our neighborhood is expanding every time they start to clear new lots i like to remove any tadpoles this time in a little pond really more of a puddle i found these clumps of eggs more little guys keep coming out ive got the hatched ones in a tub next to a few axolotls ive been raising on purpose these guys are gold color i wonder if they are as cannibalistic an the axis if they are i wont have enough space at all i want to release them when they are safe but i have the frogs figured out when they seem safe and strong mostly because i live right on the lake and have areas in the yard where they are safe these guys are new to me so any help would be appreciated email me if you prefer they look like axis now they seem to stay vertical more i have unlimited access to daphia and they are eating well ps the lot is all cleared now its not so sad since they were saved fran

everett-
as a side note; its worth throwing a common object in shot for scale on ID pictures-to give the guessers something to go from. these objects can be coins, bills, your hand/finger (not the best), rulers, soda cans, house keys...etc
