The Eastern Red Spotted Newt (Notophthalmus viridescens viridescens) is a salamander native to Eastern North America (Dec). It is a common amphibian (raritan), which means it is cold-blooded (DEC) and can be found in wet forests, small lakes, streams and ponds (portal). They frequently switch between aquatic and terrestrial habitats throughout their lives. They have 4 distinct life cycles which they are able to switch between based on their environment. The stages are 1) egg, 2) aquatic larva, 3) eft (terrestrial adult) and 4) newt (aquatic adult) (DEC).
