Distribution, threats, and conservation strategies for Chiropterotriton chiropterus, a critically endangered micro endemic salamander.

This is the first study focused on investigating the ecology of Pseudoeurycea saltator. Through periodic monitoring, we aim to identify the areas where the species lives and its requirements during different seasons. This will facilitate the modeling of its ecological niche and the delimitation of its distribution area, which is essential for assessing the threats associated with habitat loss and fragmentation.
