En route through Spain he also found the highly aquatic Iberian Sharp-ribbed Newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ) which is also found in the province. (weebly.com)
This style of mating-related tonic immobility has only been observed in one other amphibian, the sharp-ribbed newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ). (newatlas.com)
After a nice dinner in Navacerrada (pizza is always a good idea) we went to some nearby quarries and found many Iberian Water Frogs ( Pelophylax perezi ), many larvae of both Southern Marbled Newt ( Triturus pygmaeus ) and Sharp-ribbed Newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ) and of the latter also a nice adult.

Salamanders2
Although the axolotl ( Ambystoma mexicanum ) is one of the most commonly used salamanders, a number of other species such as Ambystoma tigrinum (Tiger salamander), Ambystoma maculatum (Spotted salamander) Notophthalmus viridescens (Eastern newt), and Pleurodeles waltl (Iberian newt) are commonly used for tetrapod tissue regeneration research 39 . (tanakalab.org)
We started to make our way back stopping several times including at the pools of Charca del Negro where we had views of several Sharp-ribbed Salamanders (Pleurodeles waltl), Natterjack Toads (S apo Corredor / Bufo calamita) and a very small but smart Andalucian Wall Lizard (Podarcis vaucheri).

Reptiles2
The Texas horned lizard is one of about 14 North American species of spikey-bodied reptiles called horned lizards. (thetoptens.com)

But now the tables turn within the sexual dynamics of one such species, the European common frog ( Ranat emporaria ), with researchers led by Carolin Dittritch from the Konrad Lorenz Institute of Ethology, Vienna, discovering by accident how females will fake their own deaths to avoid mating with an undesirable male.

It is thought that most species of poison dart frogs accumulate their toxins from the food chain , most likely the toxins originate in plants, eaten by insects that are then eaten by the frog. (sciencewows.ie)

Prey2
Current applied ecological interests include studying effects of pesticides on predator-prey interactions, and behavioral mechanisms underlying species invasions. (uky.edu)
This act of tonic immobility, or thanatosis, is an adapted act of deception that prey species are known to employ in the presence of a predator. (newatlas.com)
In the wild world of nature, where an organism's sole aim is to succeed at passing on their genes at any cost, it's not surprising many species have aggressive, and even deadly, mating behaviors. (newatlas.com)
Belong2
It's one of the roughly 4,600 cockroach species that belong to the Blattodea order. (goldenspikecompany.com)

Snake3
Lawrie's first discovery on his visit - a juvenile Horseshoe- w hip snake ( Hemorrhois hippocrepis) - was also the most embarrassing for me since he spotted it, a species I've not seen, basking on a stone wall only fifty yards from our house! (weebly.com)
Lampropeltis triangulum sinaloe are more commonly known as the Sinaloan milk snake are one of the most popular species of milk snake kept by many keepers. (aqua-fish.net)
They are however a god species for beginners to snake keeping as they are tolerant of a wider range of conditions than other delicate species of snakes and their docile nature means that they are also suitable for younger keepers to gain experience from this species. (aqua-fish.net)
Female1
I was down there yesterday for a couple of hours with a couple of friends, one of whom mentioned they'd only ever seen one Water Rail in his life, but within the following few minutes he'd quadrupled his Life sightings of this elusive species when the female popped out of the reeds right opposite us with a couple of chicks in tow and proceeded to feed them out in the open.

Naturally Lawrie not only found them with ease at Embalse de Barbate , Barbate dam & La Janda (36.411624-5.740734 and36.41162, -5.74073) but also got a terrific photo of a juvenile showing the distinctive markings that give the species its name. (weebly.com)

Create1
In many social species individuals create their social worlds through interaction decisions and are then subject to and constrained by these social constructs, which can affect an individual's future actions. (uky.edu)
Individuals1
Cockroaches are said to be the only species that would survive a nuclear war, according to some individuals. (goldenspikecompany.com)
The prefixes should not be considered part of the name and hence, a period should be placed between species and the gene name, while an entire phrase should be written in italics, e.g. (tanakalab.org)
