Herpetofauna: One Life's List

Desmognathus ochrophaeus
Allegheny Mountain Dusky Salamander

Pendleton Co., West Virginia
April 22, 2006

I found a number of ochrophaeus at a spot in West Virginia, on my way to Baltimore. The pouring rain at the time was only an inconvenience to me - just another day in salamander land. The trip is documented in The Great Salamander Swing.
