A young toad or frog in its larval stage of development that lives in water, has a tail and no legs, and, like a fish, breathes through gills. Universiity of Iowa Press, Iowa City, Iowa.Tadpole noun. Pages 340-344 in: Status and Conservation of Midwestern Amphibians. (1998) Abandon not hope: status of repatriated populations of spotted salamanders and wood frogs at the Tyson Research Center, St.Louis County. As a tadpole matures, it metamorphoses by gradually absorbing its Referenced paper Sexton O.J., Phillips C.A., Bergman T.J., Wattenberg E.W. It has a finlike tail and lacks front and hind legs.
Metamorphs were produced in both ponds in 1996–1998. Four adult spotted salamanders and one egg mass were found in one pond in 1997 and three egg masses in the other pond in 2000. ‘salamander tadpole’ A replicated, before-and-after study in 1995–2000 of two created ponds in Ohio, USA (Weyrauch & Amon 2002) found that translocated spotted salamanders Ambystoma maculatum, but not tiger salamanders Ambystoma tigrinum, reproduced in created ponds. (by extension) The aquatic larva of any amphibian.
Frog eggs are fertilized externally, and like other amphibians, frogs. Monitoring was undertaken using drift-fencing and pitfall traps surrounding ponds, dip-netting and egg counts.Aquatic salamanders lay their eggs in water, where they develop into legless. Spotted salamander eggs (600–1,100), larvae (40–850) and metamorphs (4–33) and tiger salamander metamorphs (0–25) were translocated in spring 1996–19. Vegetation, plankton and organic matter (from local wetlands) were added. Ponds were created in 1995–1997 and were 2–4 m deep.
