Rough fire bellied newt

[TheNewt]

I ordered some newts online, the sort of place that label dwarf clawed frogs as "brown frogs". The animals all arrived safe and well but one of the species I ordered was labelled as a "rough fire bellied newt". I've spent hours looking online for a refference or latin name and come up with nothing.
It may be helpful if I describe what they look like, 11cms long with an orange ridge running down their spines, their base colour (on their backs is mottled brown/dark green). They have black bellies with orange spots.
Any ideas guys?
I'm currnetly treating them as fire bellies, i.e aquatic with plants and a land area (quarantine set-up at present) and feeding them defrosted blood worms.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :happy:
To the Mods I'm very sorry if this is in the wrong section but didn't know where else to put it and really need some help. Thanks :happy:

Check the photos under the Genus Paramesotriton and/or Cynops. Based on your description, I'd guess Paramesotriton chinensis, but without a picture, it's hard to say.

Thanks Jeff, Bookmarked that one :happy:
Turns out they're Chinese Warty newts aka Godzilla newt. sp. Paramesotriton chinensis.
