This particular individual was found in Oregon. I would appreciate help identifying what species it is.

Yep. Definitely not a tiger salamander, but a Dicamptodon.

My guess would be Dicamptodon ensatus. Possibly D. tenebrosus.

Thank you. My knowledge on Dicamptodon is rather skimpy. I'll have to read up on them. It was really cool seeing this guy in the wild.
