 * Looks like a bunch of that was a copy and paste from this, which I wouldn't consider a reliable source (but want to keep here to aid further searching):
 * Compilation of Oregon Hairy Triton information from SHG (State Handbook & Guide) Resources:


 * The sexes are separate but similar in appearance, and fertilization is internal. Eggs capsules are laid, from which crawling young are hatched. Capsules are laid in clusters on rock surfaces or on the shells of other snails, the same or different species. Egg clusters vary in size, shape, color, and number of individual capsules. The mortality rate of eggs is usually high, therefore the eggs are laid in very large numbers.


 * The Oregon triton exhibits a courting behavior beginning approximately six months prior to egg laying. Pairing of "couples" may begin in the winter with egg laying in the summer. By mid-summer, the pairs break up. The eggs or "sea corn" are laid one-by-one in an ever-widening circle. The triton will brood its eggs for a period of eight to nine weeks, until all are hatched, to protect them from being eaten by other invertebrates, especially urchins and other Oregon tritons. Unlike the other species, larvae of the Oregon triton are pelagic.

Redfield
link in article points to the wrong Redfield, a mathematician of much later date.. needs un-hyperlinking paul_gibsons 24.207.124.122 (talk) 04:22, 16 June 2009 (UTC)


 * It's got to be the same guy--the name and the date match up. But perhaps it's even his brother, Alfred, who is alluded to in the JH Redfield article as a marine biologist. This link seems to indicate that JH had many interests. Curious. Never mind, I guess the dates and names match up when you compare the same page to itself.--Esprqii (talk) 00:25, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
