Discussion

  • All temperatures are guessed

Facts

  • Ovoviviparous; In some populations of the northern Iberian Peninsula females retain their offspring throughout development and give birth to fully metamorphosed terrestrial juveniles. (SK: neonates probably sport cannibalism in the uterus) (Ref: AlcoBuck2004)
  • Males are generally somewhat smaller (Ref: caudata)
