I'm not sure where to put this but...
I would love to find some cool etchings, engravings, or scientific illustrations of larval newts/frogs/etc. Anyone know of any resources? Not to purchase, just to look at. Internet or otherwise. I've already done the generic google search but haven't checked the library yet. Figured some of you may be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

I'm a scientific illustrator but don't have much as far as larval animals. Try looking at the work of Robert C Stebbins. He's the best... his book is peterson's "guide to western reptiles and amphibians"
 
I think that this is interesting, Scholze & Pötzschke's catalog from 1930.

The link is from a swedish petstore called "Akvarielagret" and all text on this site is in swedish (the catalog itself is in german). But in the menu to the left you should click on the links under "GRODDJUR" which means amphibians.

Some "old-school" illustrations and photos portraying Axolotls and Ambystoma opacum among others.

This is a really cool find Tindalos! You can find salamanders by using the left browser under the bold section [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]GRODDJUR: [/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]the titles salamander. It is intersting to me to note the section on terariums. Very cool to see the ancestry of our hoby and study.

    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.
