What species is a newt?
Some people confuse newts and salamanders. Newts are, in fact, salamanders since they are in the family Salamandridae, but not all salamanders are newts. A newt has a long, slender body with a broad tail, and most species have moist, smooth skin. Some species are decorated with crests and ornamental gills, such as the European crested newts. Care should be taken when handling a newt, as most emit a mild toxin which can irritate mucus membranes. They may also carry bacteria found in their watery homes, much like other amphibians.Sources: research
