Urine output of Salamandridae

[Jesper]

Hey,
Long time no posts!
I have one of those annoyong questions I used to pester Ed with a few years back...
Are you still around mr.Kowalski??

I am looking for urine output of Cynops orientalis, that would be average urine output interval terrestrial and/or aquatic stage. I'm sure there's a big, big book out there with just the answer I am looking for... I am also wondering whether the kidney function differs substantially within the Salamandridae family? It should, considering the bredth of habitats within the family, but then again you can't improve on perfection, can you?

Ooh nice new and professional look of everything here. I must come and pester you more often.

Cheers,
Jesper

Self-help is the best help eh? I found an article that covers the subject, however... I don't have access to it at the moment and would appreciate if someone could download the pdf and send it to me

Excretory nitrogen metabolism in the Chinese fire-belly newt Cynops orientalis in water, on land, or in high concentrations of environmental ammonia
