Alberch's salamander

Alberch's salamander (Bolitoglossa alberchi) is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to mexico and known from Veracruz, extreme eastern Oaxaca, and western and central Chiapas, from near sea level to 1800 m asl. Its natural habitats are tropical lowland forests. It also occurs along the edges of clearings and well-shaded plantations. It seems to be a fairly common species, although it is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture, wood extraction, and human settlement.
