“…Compared to other amphibian orders, our results reveal some interesting differences. For instance, a recent study involving 114 salamandrid species reports that the ancestral states for this clade were mating on land, oviparity and absence of amplexus (Kieren et al, 2018). The authors further suggest that the presence or absence of amplexus might be unrelated with the mating habitat.…”

“…Later phylogenetic studies which included sequence data from nine nuclear genes [ 27 , 28 ] supported a Calotriton/Triturus clade, but they remained ambiguous with relation to the position of Euproctus . Kieren’s et al [ 6 ] reconstruction of ancient mating behaviour within the Salamandridae is based on the tree topology inferred by [ 25 ]. They showed that both Calotriton and Euproctus evolved from lentic ancestors, hence their behavioural adaptation to lotic habitats evolved convergently and, as shown by their application of the molecular clock, at different times.…”

“…The family has a Holarctic distribution, with the majority of species living in Europe and Asia. Apart from their morphological and ecological variability, Salamandridae are known for an exceptionally broad spectrum of reproductive strategies and breeding behaviours (e.g., [ 5 , 6 ]). The evolutionary relationships of extant salamandrids were therefore repeatedly subject of phylogenetic research, starting in 1928 with Bolkay’s important analysis of cranial characters [ 7 ] and ending in the 21 st century with numerous molecular genetic studies and their in part contradicting results ( S1 Tab ).…”

“…kaiseri, and N. strauchii (including the subspecies barani, strauchii and munzurensis). The monophyly of the genus has been well established based on nuclear allozyme and mitochondrial DNA sequence data (Steinfartz et al, 2002) and phylogenetic reconstructions within the Salamandridae, based on complete mitogenomes and nuclear sequences (Kieren et al, 2018;Veith et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2008), placed it as sister group to Near Eastern newts of the genus Ommatotriton. The relationships within Neurergus have also been studied using a variety of molecular markers (Hendrix et al, 2014;Steinfartz et al, 2002), but always based on a limited number of loci.…”
