1 According to Van Denburgh Dicamptodon ensatua (Eschscholtz Zool. Atlas, pt. 5, 1833, p. 6, 

 pi. 22), is a synonym of Ambygtoma tenebrosum Baird and Girard; until, however, it is possible to 

 examine the type, if it still exists at Dorpat or Rostock, it seems better to consider this allocation 

 only provisional, in view of the fact that the figure in the Zoologisches Atlas is not very similar to the 

 Ambystoma. We do not, however, include it in the list.
