Slimy salamander; Molecular evolution; Plethodon; Amphibians. 64 Biochemical Evolution in the Slimy Salamanders morphologically from groups 6, 10, and 13. The unique combination of genetic alleles that distinguishes P. kiamichi from other species of the P. glutinosus group is shown in Table 4. Got-1 allele b, common in P. kiamichi, is absent from the other species of the P. glutinosus complex, but is also common in P. ouachitae (Table 4).. Fig. 12. Distribution oi P. kiamichi (Gro

Distribution oi P. kiamichi (Group 7) on Kiamichi Mountain, Arkansas and Oklahoma, based on samples identified to species electrophoretically. Counties are indicated. Description of Holotype: After preservation: length from tip of snout to anterior angle of vent, 65 mm (in life, 69 mm), and to posterior angle of vent, 70 mm; total length, 141 mm; head length (snout to gular fold), 15 mm; head width at widest point, 10 mm; length of front limbs, 15 mm, and of hind limbs, 16 (right) and 15 mm (left). Vomerine teeth number 13 on the right and 11 on the left. 16 costal grooves. Many small white dorsal spots with associated brassy flecking in life; numerous white spots on sides, chin, and legs; venter dark as ground color of back and sides and with few white spots; chin as dark as venter with a prominent, large, oval-shaped mental gland. Many tiny spots (hedonic glands) on ventral surface of body and tail. Few tiny brassy flecks and white spots on the eyelids in life. Description of Allotype: After preservation: length from tip of snout to anterior angle of vent, 79 mm (in life, 83 mm), and to posterior angle of vent, 85 mm; total length, 160 mm; head length, 17 mm; head width, 11.
