What is Age and Growth of Caucasian Salamander about?

This study investigates the age, growth, and longevity of the Caucasian Salamander (Mertensiella caucasica) in Turkey using skeletochronology. Findings indicate that males have a higher average age (7.3 years) and longevity (up to 10 years) compared to females (6.0 years, max 9 years), with age at maturity around 4-5 years for both sexes. The growth patterns follow a von Bertalanffy model, showing significant differences in size and weight between males and females.
