This a Bolitoglossa sp. my dad saw in Nicaragua on a trip. I don't know the exact species, only that it is endemic to a mountain called Mombacho. It's an amazing animal.

Simon,
Are you posting links? This maybe why the pictures are not appearing.

Please review the instructions in the Photogallery and try again.

if it is endemic to Mombacho vulcano then it will be Bolitoglossa mombachoensis

as for the picture, are you sure that you saved them as a jpeg?
 
It's a jpeg and it's definitely not a link (it's saved in a MyPictures folder), but when i try and upload it onto the computer it says it's uploading but it just ends up doing what it did up there.
Thanks, I'll try again
 
All right I think it'll work this time.

Hi Simon, sometimes firewalls can interfere with the upload process. If that's the problem, you may be able to program an exception into the firewall that allows this to work. I would very much like to see these photos! If adjusting the firewall doesn't work, maybe you can e-mail them to me and I'll post them for you.
 
I don't know. It's probably just my dumb computer, it does stuff like this a lot (eg, it doesn't let me access my email). I'll try to do on another computer, otherwise I'll email them to you (there's only 5 + a spectacular Red eyed treefrog).
Thanks
 
Nice work (both the photos, and getting them posted)! If you are quite sure they were taken on Mt. Mombacho, I would like to ID them as Bolitoglossa mombachoensis and post the photos on Caudata Culture. Anyone object?
 
No objections. It was my dumb computer that wouldn't let me post the pics. They were without question taken on Mombacho.
 
Awesome genus. Flights to Honduras have been extremely cheap lately, I'm very tempted to head south.
 
Glad you made the extra effort to get them posted.
Nice pictures. Thanks

    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.

    sorry I am having a hard time trying to upload the pictures- I have them saved on my hard drive... any suggestions-the prompts here are not allowing for downloads that way as far as I can tell. Thanks
