Abstract

Huachuca tiger salamanders are a genetically distinctive race found only in 17 localities in the San Rafael Valley, SE Arizona. Populations of salamanders are threatened by introduction of exotic fishes and disease. An additional threat includes possible hybridization and introgression of populations resulting from introduction of exotic salamanders. Introduced bullfrogs Rana catesbeiana may also prey on salamanders, or act as vectors for disease. -from Authors
