Dimensions. Length of head to fold, 7 lines; from the fold to vent, 2 inches 

 5 lines; length of tail beyond vent, 3 inches 6 lines: total length, 6 inches 9 lines. 



Geographical Distribution. This Salamander has as yet only been observed 

 by Dr. Emmons in the northern districts of New York. 



General Remarks. I have never seen the Salamandra granulata, and am 

 indebted to my friend Dr. De Kay for the above description, as well as the 

 accompanying plate. At first it would seem to resemble some varieties of the 

 Salamandra glutinosa where the white dots are wanting; but the granulated skin 

 prevents their being confounded.
