 * Symbol question.svg 5x expansion and length OK. Not sure about the hook though.  The source says "Some sites may support both species, and there may be a high rate of hybridization (about 60%) at these sites", the "may" doesn't strike me as supporting the assertion that it "sometimes hybridises".  Also is [caudata.org] reliable?  Thanks - Dumelow (talk) 22:12, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
