Abstract

Distribution of the neotenic Eurycea in Texas is confined to the Edwards Plateau. Locality records from Williamson and Val Verde counties represent the eastern and western extremes for the distribution of these forms. The Val Verde record is a southwestern range extension for the family Plethodontidae. Distribution of the five species of Eurycea from the plateau is discussed with new locality records given representing six new counties. A key is provided for the neotenic Eurycea in Texas.
