Seepage Salamander
Seepage salamander is the name of the species that used to be called the
Cherokee salamander and the Alabama salamander. Tennessee is the northeastern
edge of the seepage salamander's range. It is more common in North Carolina,
Georgia, and Alabama. It has straight-edged, reddish-brown stripes in the northern
part of its range and wavy-brown stripes in Alabama. It lives among leaf litter
and eats springtails, beetle larvae, and mites.
