FROM THE BIODIVERSITY SKETCH BOOK


This week it was announced that two frogs and a salamander that were previously believed to be extinct have been found alive in the wild.  The species include the cave splayfoot salamander of Hidalgo province, Mexico, the Nimba reed frog of the Ivory Coast, and the Omaniundu reed frog of the Democratic Republic of Congo.  The non-profit organization Conservation International launched the search.

It is great to hear some positve environmental news!
