Onychodactylus fischeri

Amphibians

Onychodactylus fischeri, known as Fischer's clawed salamander or the Russian clawed salamander, is a lungless salamander found in the Russian Far East. It was once thought to range across Northeast Asia more broadly, but that assessment relied on a paraphyletic grouping, and the Chinese and Korean populations are now treated as distinct species.
