Dear list memebers,=0A=0AMy lab is studying Salamandra larviposition strate= gies using field experiments.=0ASalamandra venture out of their shelters to= larviposit in ponds only during rainy nights.=0AWe are considering an expe= riment where Salamandra females will be kept in enclosures with an artifici= al shelter and a few mesocosm pools. During the experiment it is likely to = rain only a couple of times, if at all, so we plan to use water/mist sprink= lers in each enclosure near the salamander's shelter.=0ADoes anyone know wh= ether this might succeed in inducing larviposition activity? Has this been = tried with other amphibian species that oviposit/larviposit only during rai= ns?=0A=0AThank you very much,=0A =0AAsaf Sadeh=0A=0AProf. Leon Blaustein`s = lab=0AInstitute of Evolution=0AUniversity of Haifa=0AHaifa 31905, Israel=0A= Office: +972-4-8240447=0AMobile: +972-52-6611614=0Ahttp://research.haifa.ac= .il/~leon/index.htm=0A=0A=0A =0A_____________________________________= _______________________________________________=0AMoody friends.
