DISCOVERY OF INTRODUCED POPULATIONS OF CALIFORNIA SLENDER SALAMANDERS (BATRACHOSEPS ATTENUATUS) IN THE PORTLAND, OREGON, METROPOLITAN AREA
2025
Overview
We document 2 introduced populations of California Slender Salamanders (Batrachoseps attenuatus) in Portland, Oregon. These are the 2nd and 3rd documented sites of introduction in the Pacific Northwest. We found multiple individuals at both sites and the existence of multiple size classes, suggesting that the Pacific Northwest is suitable for the establishment of B. attenuatus. We sequenced all individuals at cytochrome-b and found a single variant identical to a haplotype in the native range from the Presidio of San Francisco, California. We discuss potential routes for introduction and the possibility that human-modified habitats, such as residential yards, buffer against unsuitable conditions and allow B. attenuatus to persist beyond the edges of their native range, including in the colder climates of the Pacific Northwest.
