Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Small stream sampling

Here's another sample from the same stretch of water; this one with a slightly more defined "stripe" and a bit larger body size.  This one also gave up part of its tail at some point, which is common with this family.   

I'm about 99% sure these are Northern two-line salamanders.  

Also got this sucker under an undercut bank, about mid-way between my place and Rob's --

Also look at the shape of the head and eyes. Two lined have eyes that stick up from the head, search Google images. The one you caught has a flat head with low set eyes. Also the tail on yours is paddle shaped (vertically), two lined have longer, narrower tails.

Were they in water when you found them or under rocks on the bank? Mudpuppies would be in water.
