Politicians ranging from Sen. Maggie Hassan to former Sen. Kelly Ayotte to 2012 GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich have floated this move as having the potential to soften opposition. (nhpr.org)
It's nice to see the calls of Newt Gingrich and other Republicans to rid the GOP of corruption in light of the Abramoff scandal. (blogspot.com)
But his embarrassing text messages aren't comparable to a Bill Clinton sexcapade, or even a Newt Gingrich affair. (wataugawatch.net)
Larvae3
As developing larvae in the water, newts are small, with faint red or yellow spots, bushy gills, and large tail fins. (teachervision.com)
Efts and adult newts eat worms, insects and insect larvae, slugs, frog tadpoles, and any other small animal s they can catch. (blubrry.net)
Immature caddisflies or caddisfly larvae live in both still and running water. (scientistsinschool.ca)
Eastern newts3
The Pacific newts (Taricha) and the Eastern newts (Notophthalmus) with together seven species are the only representatives in North America, while most diversity is found in the Old World: In Europe and the Middle East, the group's likely origin, eight genera with roughly 30 species are found, with the ribbed newts (Pleurodeles) extending to northernmost Africa. (wikipedia.org)
In both the adult and larval stages, eastern newts are aquatic animals thatoften live in great numbers in unpolluted, permanent bodies of water with plenty of aquatic plants. (teachervision.com)
Eastern Newts are at home in both coniferous and deciduous forests. (traderscreek.com)
North America7
More than 100 known species of newts are found in North America, Europe, North Africa and Asia. (wikipedia.org)
Newts are found in North America, Europe, North Africa and Asia. (wikipedia.org)
In the eastern region of North America, north of Georgia, the eastern newt is the only salamander that has red dots with black borders. (teachervision.com)
The eastern newt is common in eastern North America fromNova Scotia to Minnesota and southward to Florida and the Gulf Coast. (teachervision.com)
Newts live throughout much of the northern hemisphere, including northern Africa and the Middle East, Eurasia, and North America. (blubrry.net)
Efts that live in North America return to the water when they become full adults, but most newts in other parts of the world stay on land the rest of their lives except during breeding season. (blubrry.net)
It's an exception to the rule that newts outside of North America usually live their adult lives on land. (blubrry.net)
Adult8
Newts metamorphose through three distinct developmental life stages: aquatic larva, terrestrial juvenile (eft), and adult. (wikipedia.org)
Adult newts have lizard-like bodies and return to the water every year to breed, otherwise living in humid, cover-rich land habitats. (wikipedia.org)
However, the general appearance of the eastern newt is somewhat different in each of its three distinct life stages: larva, eft, and adult. (teachervision.com)
In the adult stage, newts usually are dull brown, and have a yellow belly with numerous small black dots. (teachervision.com)
Adult newts usually range in size from 6-11 cm(2 1/2 4 1/2 in. (teachervision.com)
The second metamorphosis is to a breeding aquatic adult Newts. (traderscreek.com)
Kevin Duncan: 2 Spoonbill (adult & immature, low over west, then in the Meadow from 08:00 to 08:45). (ticesmeadow.org)
The immature and adult mites emerge in the spring after overwintering in bark crevices and other tiny spaces. (uknature.co.uk)
Efts2
After several years of terrestrial existence as immature efts, they reach maturity and return to the water to breed with other adults. (teachervision.com)
Throughout the summer, larval newts can be seen swimming, until fall, when they transform into efts and move out of the water into the surrounding uplands. (teachervision.com)
Threatened by habi1
Newts are threatened by habitat loss, fragmentation and pollution. (wikipedia.org)
Ponds4
While most species prefer stagnant water bodies such as ponds, ditches, or flooded meadows for reproduction, some species such as the Danube crested newt can also occur in slow-flowing rivers. (wikipedia.org)
After courtship rituals of varying complexity, which take place in ponds or slow-moving streams, the male newt transfers a spermatophore, which is taken up by the female. (wikipedia.org)
and finally the small ponds which provide safe havens for frogs, toads, newts and even slow worms and grass snakes. (uknature.co.uk)
That would include your forests, your carbon sinks, your newt ponds, your topsoil, your water, your last planet's own means of production. (murrbrewster.com)
Hind legs1
They metamorphose over several months just like frogs do when they develop from tadpoles, but where frogs develop their hind legs first, newt tadpoles develop front legs first. (blubrry.net)
Salamanders3
Not all aquatic salamanders are considered newts, however. (wikipedia.org)
In addition, very few other salamanders walk around in the open woods in broad daylight as boldly as do the bright orange newts in the eft stage. (teachervision.com)
All newts are salamanders but not all salamanders are newts. (blubrry.net)
Terrestrial3
Unlike other members of the family Salamandridae, newts are semiaquatic, alternating between aquatic and terrestrial habitats. (wikipedia.org)
During their terrestrial phase, newts live in humid habitats with abundant cover such as logs, rocks, or earth holes. (wikipedia.org)
The first is the usual transformation from aquatic, gilled larva to an air-breathing terrestrial sexually immature land phase called an Eft. (traderscreek.com)
Aquatic1
A newt is a type of salamander, specifically a semi-aquatic salamander in the subfamily Pleurodelinae. (blubrry.net)
Tadpoles2
This is why they settle for tadpoles and frog eggs, as well as very tiny, immature froglets. (guideyourpet.com)
The sight of dozens of little tadpoles swimming around and lazing newts is a fantastic sight. (letsgogardening.co.uk)
Pleurodelinae1
A newt is a salamander in the subfamily Pleurodelinae. (wikipedia.org)
Salamander5
citation needed] Newts share many of the characteristics of their salamander kin, Caudata, including semipermeable glandular skin, four equal-sized limbs, and a distinct tail. (wikipedia.org)
The eastern newt is a small- to medium-sized salamander withtwo irregular rows of reddish spots bordered by black circles. (teachervision.com)
Newts are the only type of salamander in the eastern United States and Canada that go through such an intermediate eft stage. (teachervision.com)
The Corsican brook salamander is a type of newt that lives on the island of Corsica in the Mediterranean Sea. (blubrry.net)
The Corsican brook salamander we just talked about is not toxic, so we'll call it the least dangerous newt. (blubrry.net)
Worms1
It should also be noted that immature worms (those lacking a clitellum, also known as a collar or saddle, which is the characteristic that places them in the class Clitellata) cannot be positively identified, and a surprisingly (to me at least) large percentage of the worms one sees are immature. (10000thingsofthepnw.com)
Hemisphere1
The main breeding season for newts (in the Northern Hemisphere) is in June and July. (wikipedia.org)
Larva1
The regular form eft, now only used for newly metamorphosed specimens, survived alongside newt, especially in composition, the larva being called "water-eft" and the mature form "land-eft" well into the 18th century, but the simplex "eft" as equivalent to "water-eft" has been in use since at least the 17th century. (wikipedia.org)
Eggs3
A single newt female can produce hundreds of eggs. (wikipedia.org)
For instance, the warty newt can produce 200-300 eggs (Bradford 2017). (wikipedia.org)
Female newts lay their eggs in freshwater, usually attaching them to vegetation or in little crevices in rocks. (blubrry.net)
Occur1
The Red-Spotted Newt gets its name from the many red spots that occur on its dorsal surface against the background color of brown to olive green in adults. (traderscreek.com)
Streams1
The European brook newts (Calotriton) and European mountain newts (Euproctus) have even adapted to life in cold, oxygen-rich mountain streams. (wikipedia.org)
This is why it's not a good idea to handle a newt, or any other amphibian for that matter, unless you're absolutely certain it's a species that's not toxic. (blubrry.net)
Species4
Several species are endangered, and at least one species, the Yunnan lake newt, has become extinct recently. (wikipedia.org)
Latin had the name stellio for a type of spotted newt, now used for species of the genus Stellagama. (wikipedia.org)
There are at least 60 species of newt known with more being discovered every year , but I'll do my best to hit the highlights. (blubrry.net)
In some species, such as fish and newts, glial cells can repair damaged retina and brain tissue by differentiating into a wide variety of neurons. (uw.edu)
Water3
Ancient Greek had the name κορδύλος, presumably for the water newt (immature newt, eft). (wikipedia.org)
citation needed] Newts are semiaquatic, spending part of the year in the water for reproduction and the rest of the year on land. (wikipedia.org)
The newt tadpole finally absorbs its gills and grows lungs instead, at which point it emerges from the water as an immature newt called an eft. (blubrry.net)
Type1
In previous research Reh and his colleagues found that it was possible to induce mammalian glial cells to take a step back in development and become a more immature, primitive cell type called a progenitor cell. (uw.edu)
General1
Mean people, immature people, and bullies in general don't just change behavior because someone they don't know stares at them. (fictionroom.com)
Common1
The Red-spotted newt is one of the most common newts in the United States. (traderscreek.com)
Cells1
One hypothesis is that the undifferentiated cells are related to tumor cells, since chemicals that produce tumors in other animals will produce additional limbs in newts. (wikipedia.org)
Ability2
Newts have the extraordinary ability to fully regenerate lost or damaged cardiac, neural and retinal tissues, and even amputated limbs. (bvsalud.org)
While the molecular basis of newts' regenerative ability is the subject of active study, the underlying paracrine signaling factors involved remain largely uncharacterized. (bvsalud.org)
Asia1
The smooth newt lives throughout much of Europe and parts of Asia. (blubrry.net)
Produce2
As Enzo undoubtedly knows, many newts produce toxins. (blubrry.net)
The smooth newt, on the other hand, produce s a relatively mild toxin. (blubrry.net)
Make1
For most immature minded NC women voters Cal's libido show might make him more attractive. (wataugawatch.net)
Early1
The form "newt" appears to have arisen as a dialectal variant of eft in Staffordshire, but entered Standard English by the Early Modern period (used by Shakespeare in Macbeth iv.1). (wikipedia.org)
