List Of Critically Endangered Amphibians
As of December 2021, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 673 critically endangered amphibian species, including 146 which are tagged as ''possibly extinct''. 9.2% of all evaluated amphibian species are listed as critically endangered. No subpopulations of amphibians have been evaluated by the IUCN. Additionally, 1193 amphibian species (16.4% of those evaluated) are listed as ''data deficient'', meaning there is insufficient information for a full assessment of conservation status. As these species typically have small distributions and/or populations, they are intrinsically likely to be threatened, according to the IUCN. While the category of ''data deficient'' indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made for the taxa, the IUCN notes that it may be appropriate to give them "the same degree of attention as threatened taxa, at least until their status can be assessed."

Bolitoglossa Chucantiensis
''Bolitoglossa'' is a genus of lungless salamanders, also called mushroom-tongued salamanders, tropical climbing salamanders, or web-footed salamanders, in the family Plethodontidae. Their range is between northern Mexico through Central America to Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, northeastern Brazil, and central Bolivia. Neotropical salamanders of the ''Bolitoglossa'' make up the largest genus in the order Caudata, consisting of approximately one-fifth of all known species of salamanders. Adult salamanders range anywhere from 45mm to 200mm in length depending on their specific species. They are notorious for their ability to project their tongue at prey items, as indicated from their name. They are also known for their webbed feet, having significantly more webbing than any other species outside their genus with the exception of the cave-dwelling Mexican bolitoglossine ''Chiropterotriton magnipes''. Although webbed feet are a common characteristic of these salamanders, only ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bolitoglossa Oresbia
''Bolitoglossa oresbia'' is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Honduras and is known from the summit of Cerro El Zarciadero (its type locality) and the southwestern side of the nearby Cerro Azul Meámbar National Park, in the northern Comayagua Department. Description The type series consists of two adult females measuring in snout–vent length (SVL) and in total length. A subadult female measured SVL. The snout is truncate in dorsal aspect and rounded in profile. The tail is strongly constricted basally. The limbs are relatively slender and long; the digits are moderately webbed. The upper parts are grayish brown or brownish olive with small, inconspicuous, irregularly shaped buff-yellow spots. The ventral surface is uniformly buff-yellow (holotype) or brownish olive with buff-yellow blotches (paratype). Habitat and conservation The species inhabits cloud forests at elevations of above sea level. Specimens have been found in water-contai ...

Bolitoglossa Nussbaumi
''Bolitoglossa nussbaumi'' is a lungless salamander in the family Plethodontidae endemic to Guatemala. Taxonomy ''Bolitoglossa nussbaumi'' was described in 2010. Its specific epithet honors herpetologist Ronald A. Nussbaum. Description ''Bolitoglossa nussbaumi'' averages around 50mm in length. Its dark brown in coloration, and some individuals have darker brown stripes. Its toes are more distinct and less webbed than other members of its genus, distinguishing it from them. Habitat and Distribution The species is only known from its type locality, the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes in Guatemala. It's believed that its distribution is limited to that area, as surveys in nearby suitable locations have never found ''Bolitogloss nussbaumi'' present. Specimens have been collected with within and under rotting wood in dry, forested areas. History Conservation The type series of ''Bolitoglossa nussbaumi'' was collected in 1998 and despite surveys taking place since then, the specie ...
