The forests of Corsica - Amphibians

Postby Robin Duborget » Sun Nov 16, 2014 1:50 pm

Hello,

It is amphibians photographied in the Vizzavona forest (1100 m), near Corte in "Haute-Corse". It was in 2014 April.

A lot of Salamandra corsica (near 30 individuals) after a strong rain :

And the last one, in his terrestrial form, mainly found below rocks, near streams ; Euproctus montanus :

One forest, three endemics :D

Robin
