[ooh one more real-kraken post tho and then back to your regularly scheduled programming + polar explorer campaigning. what reptiles and amphibians would y’all want to see made into pokémon? i am a known cryptobranchid enthusiast, so seeing the hellbender or one of the extinct andrias species would be exciting for me. i am also exceedingly fond of most ambystoma salamanders, particularly a. talpoideum and a. barbouri, and the atheris genus, particularly a. hispida. and i think the side-blotched lizard’s mating strategy would make for an excellent pokémon. you could have a fire-water-grass rock-paper-scissors setup with the different morphs!]

Here's a picture of C. alliganiensis. He's so ugly I love him!

(Also I can't italicize the scientific name in the poll unfortunately. Sorry if that bothers anyone.)

Soooo…. Tell me about these hellbenders.

Oh gosh okay so!! There's this type of salamander where I live up in the Appalachians called a Hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis)! And they're big bois. Like, they're closely related to the Giant Salamander over in Asia, and they're usually around 17 inches long, but can be up to about 30 inches! North America's largest amphibian. <3

And they're brown and mottled with tiny little eyes and folds of wrinkled skin all over their body (they breathe through their skin so having folds and wrinkles increases their overall surface area to breathe through!) and people tend to find them maybe a lil ugly. (I personally think they're adorable but I think lots of animals are adorable ldkfjdlfkj. But look at em! They look like a muppet. And look at their nubby lil hands. I love em.)

In fact, people thinking they looked weird or gross or scary is how it got its name. Colonizers arriving in this region thought they looked like they came from hell - thus the name Hellbender. (According to Wikipedia, they're called a whole range of flattering names tho - snot otter, lasagna lizard, devil dog, mud-devil, mud dog, water dog, grampus, and Allegheny alligator.) So people have, historically, tended to be a lil grossed out by them, and as such, they've gone largely ignored up until recently as their habitats were destroyed by water pollution and other human activity. They're very sensitive to changes in water quality and can only live in fairly specific conditions, being habitat specialists. Which can make conservation tricky. But they've been gaining more awareness and have been having their conservation efforts taken more seriously lately! Here in Pennsylvania, they were officially declared the state amphibian by the governor in hopes of raising awareness and efforts to keep the water clean for them! So, here's hoping these dudes make a comeback, bc they're really wonderful lil dudes.

This is an Eastern Hellbender (Photo by Ryan Wolfe). Affectionately known as "snot otter" and "lasagna lizard" this slimy critter is the largest salamander found in North America. Their range is mainly on western slopes of the Appalachians and in the Tennessee and Ohio watersheds west to the Mississippi, but there are some in Missouri and adjoining states. Hellbenders can get up to 30 inches long. The fully aquatic salamanders have lungs, but underwater they breathe through their skin, especially through the loose skin folds, which give the skin far more surface area. These amazing creatures are also slipping away due to disease and poor water quality in the streams they inhabit. A new study has also identified a surprising new threat, people moving shelter rocks in and along streams. These salamanders hide under rocks in streams both as juveniles and adults. An individual may spend its entire 30 year lifetime living under the same rock! Moving/stacking of a stream's stones to make rock cairns and small rock dams has now been documented to cause mortality of both larval, juvenile, & adult hellbenders (S. Unger, et al, Southeastern Naturalist, 16(2): (2017). So when recreating in other creatures habitats make sure to be respectful of their homes!

Lasagna lizard (hellbender) my beloved

[sar190]

Ratglicine 40-47 million years 

While the planet is in an ice age some areas would be spared of the frigid cold but some areas would become tilted in the other direction with most of Sala swamps being dried up due to the weaker fields surrounding the planet due to the Ice age’s global tilt. This would prove to be even more catastrophic to Salamanders who are stuck in many areas, it would be a boon for one Hellbender species, sitting on a fallen tree is a rather odd creature. It is neither a salamander or a lizard but something in similar, this is a Saltile a descendant of the Terrestrial Hellbender a few million years previous and unlike it’s ancestor it has developed true scales but even more interesting is that is has independently developed a calcified egg removing it’s reliance on water. But nearby an insidious looking creature skitters towards the Saltile a Juggernaut beetle virtually unchanged other then having a darker carapace moves closer to the sunbathing saltile until it stops and begins to graze on some shriveled grass. The Saltile opes it’s eyes and crawls down from the tree approaching the much larger insect and stands in front of it. The beetle lowers down resting on all six of it’s legs and the Saltile begins to crawl across it’s carapace biting at it, but it is not attacking the beetle itself, no it is cleaning the beetle of blood sucking pests that get past it’s armor and sucks blood from the softer meat. After cleaning the giant beetle up it still remains on it due to the beatles darker carapace warming up faster under the sun making it an ideal place to rest.

SNOT OTTER (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis)

Herasimtschuk, D. 2015. “Two male Eastern hellbenders (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis) fight over prime breeding habitat” North Carolina, USA

Better known as the hellbender, the snot otter ain’t no mustelid. Also recognised as the mud dog, lasagna lizard, grampus and several more delightful vernaculars, this sizeable salamander has only its appearance to blame (most notably the thick, slimy folds of skin running down the lateral sides of the animal). I think they’re adorable.

Been meaning to post this for a while. A local student, @hsiao.emma1957, made these gorgeous herpetology playing cards, and a portion of the proceeds goes to wildlife conservation and education! Just look at that stunning color and design! (I must note that I used Clarendon to make the colors pop like they did in person - and I love the inclusion of the Archaeopteryx as the Joker!) #reptiles #amphibians #herpetology #conservation #playingcards #deckofcards #design #axolotl #archaeopteryx #giantsalamander #hellbender #lizards #frogs #snakes #illustration #wildlifeillustration #natureillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/B9MWNHlgGn3/?igshid=bicm2suzm63g

Sharing Shipping Space with Amphibian and Reptiles

by Stevie Kennedy-Gold

Your online orders of clothes and household goods might well have shared shipping space alongside preserved toads and snakes from the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Don’t worry though – museum specimens are shipped following long-established rules and regulations, and the movement of herpetological freight is all in the service of science.

Wait, what?! Well, at a relatively low, but steady rate, natural history museums loan out specimens, and these materials are generally shipped, outgoing and incoming, via regular commercial carriers.

Why loan out a specimen?! Why, to ask and answer awesome scientific questions, to enhance an exhibit, or to use as artistic references! Just as every human has a story unique to their own life and experiences, etched in their wrinkles, freckles, and scars, the same is true for every specimen in the collection. Each frog and lizard, snake and turtle has experienced different environmental impacts, endured famine, parasites, pollution, or predation. Each specimen has its own story. Instead of being written down within the pages of a book, the animals’ stories are recorded within their muscles, organs, bones, and DNA. As such, an eastern fence lizard collected from Pennsylvania in 1893 will likely have a different body size, diet, or parasite load compared to the same species of lizard collected from the same town in 2005.

Scientists request loans from museum collections so that they can examine the specimens, unlock the stories hidden in each body, and answer their scientific questions. Alternatively, we receive requests from artists needing reference materials for their newest works of art, or to more accurately render images of a species they would otherwise not be able to see up close (I’m looking at you, venomous snakes, highly toxic frogs, or now extinct species!). And, of course, museums themselves loan from collections to use in displays as representatives of the far larger number of specimens housed behind-the-scenes. Walk through Dinosaurs in their Time towards Cenozoic – those bones can be considered as an inter-building loan from our Vertebrate Paleontology collection. Head up to the Foster Overlook and check out our hellbender who choked on a marshmallow – that specimen is certainly an inter-building loan from the collection I manage.

But how exactly are specimen loans arranged? The process varies from institution to institution and from section to section, so this description is the process specific to the Section of Amphibians and Reptiles at this museum. Overall, though, the process is a great deal easier than it would seem. Assuming a borrower knows what species to work with, a search of the Section’s online presence at iDigBio or VertNet will determine the specific specimens to request. After that, a formal request letter is required. This document must include details of borrower affiliation, the species and specimens requested, and the reason behind the request along with any planned examination techniques. The next step in the procedure is an email directed to me through the museum website (here), again providing a brief description of the borrower’s intent.

Image 1: Prepping a loan of anoles for a researcher. In the foreground are lists of specimen preferences from the researcher and specimens in the collection which fit the criteria.

Assuming a request is reasonable (i.e., doesn’t involve the complete destruction of the specimen!), I then begin pulling the requested specimens from the collection, placing tiny loan slips in each jar as I go as place holders signifying the specimen’s loaned status (Image 1). The slip has the specimen’s catalog number, the loan number, and the requester. Paper trails are vital in loaning specimens. I also make a notation in my fancy new Loan database, as well as in the general Herp Section Specimen database. Finally, I draft up the loan contract which will be sent out with the specimens. I then wrap the specimens in cheesecloth (Images 2 and 3), give them a good soaking in alcohol, triple bag and heat seal them in, and slap the appropriate documentation on and in the box. The package then goes off to the mailroom!

Image 2: Laying out the specimens on cheesecloth in preparation for shipping. A loan slip can be seen behind the cup on the right side of the image.

Image 3: Charlotte, a recent intern in the section, helps package up a loan of toads.

Once someone has completed their work with the specimens, they normally notify me and ship the specimens back as soon as possible. Assuming all the specimens are returned in good order, the loan is closed, the specimens are returned to the collection, the slips of paper are pulled from the jars, and the specimens once again become available for other people to use.

Unfortunately, some specimen loans, like library books, become overdue. A typical loan duration is 6 months, at the end of which the borrower can request a loan extension (much like requesting an extension on a library book) or they can send the specimens back. If the loan period elapses without any communication, I don my imaginary “Lizard Librarian” hat and kindly request their return as soon as possible.

Due to the size of this collection, the responsibilities of a collection manager, the number of loans we send out annually (some years over 40!), and the recent (with respect to the general age of the collection) technological adoptions within the Section (i.e., creating digital databases), it is not surprising that the retrieval of some loans lapsed, and even the documentation of some specimen locations is unclear. As a result, I recently took it upon myself, with the aid of my fearless and tireless group of interns, work study students, and volunteers, to determine the “active status” for all loans sent out since 1925 (the earliest recorded loan in the section). We have nearly 2000 loan records to look through, but fortunately my predecessors did a decent job tracking when a loan was returned or when contact was made to request the specimens be returned.

It’s a long arduous process making sure that all the specimens are back. Initially, our search to verify if the specimen was returned begins with the jars containing species from the location where the borrowed specimen was collected. This process takes time, and the pace is contingent upon how many specimens were requested per loan and how many specimens (and jars!) of a specific species from a specific place we have in the collection. For example, tracking the whereabouts of a loan of 50 eastern newts from Pennsylvania has taken us a few weeks because we have nearly 20 jars of newts from the state, each containing at least 100 specimens.

Image 4: Before (left) and after (right) images of a selection of jars which we looked through to confirm the specimens were loaned out and for which we updated the jar labels. You can see in the bottom middle jar in the image on the right the loan slip and piece of orange tape which denotes specimens were loaned out from that jar.

If we emerge empty handed after examining all the jars of a specific species from a specific place, we then look in jars containing the same species collected from other locations. This process has resulted in finding almost 10 specimens previously deemed “missing” – some since the 1960s! On top of this process, we also record the catalogue number of every specimen in every jar we examine so we can update the jar labels with the specimen numbers (Image 4). This expedites finding specific specimens in the future and ensures that all specimens are placed in their correct jars. It’s a true labor of love and the process is a museum collection equivalent of an (ultra-ULTRA) marathon, not a sprint. When it all boils down though, I am just a librarian making sure that all my books (or specimens!) are where they ought to be.
