I found this C pyrr in a pet store sometime ago, but finally got the pic off of my digital camera. Of course it wasnt for sale, and the owner of it named it "Godzilla" hahaha I really like the pattern on the belly.

any idea on what plant that is in the background? the one with the leaves that look jagged on the edges. i've never seen that around here...
 
Glad to hear you finally got a chance to see a C. pyrrhogaster in the flesh

Judging from its belly markings and coloration, it's a C. pyrrhogaster of the Sasayama race (C. p. sasayamae), which is found in parts of central Honshu Island, around Kyoto for example.

Hope you don't mind if i take liberties with your pic as it was a bit dark:

Jon - The plant in the background is a silk plant that they sell at the pet store, I have one in my P waltl tank and they love hiding in the leaves and looking around for food.

Jen - I asked the lady who owns the newt if she knew it was a girl. But of course she didnt, but then again we all know what to expect from pet store staff

Tim - Thanks for making that pic clearer, I dont have a photo editing program yet, oh did you get those pics of the C. pyrrhogaster males with the super long toes??
