“…The study was conducted at the Ornithological Reserve of Mindelo and two nearby localities at Porto, Portugal, where the target species has previously been studied (e.g., Alarcón‐Ríos, Nicieza, Kaliontzopoulou, Buckley, & Velo‐Antón, 2020). The species selected for targeted detection, the fire salamander ( Salamandra salamandra ), is a urodele species widespread across Europe.…”

“…Besides variation in reproductive modes and other phenotypic traits (e.g. colouration), S. s. bernardezi is on average smaller (mean ± SD body size: 79 ± 8.4 mm) than S. s. gallaica larviparous salamanders (115 ± 9,1 mm) (Velo-Antón and Alarcón-Ríos et al, 2020b). Because body size is positively correlated with locomotor performance and dispersal distances, we cannot discard this phenotypic trait may enable larviparous salamanders overcoming more easily these aquatic barriers compared to pueriparous salamanders and, therefore, contributing for a lower genetic structure in the former.…”

“…We used a fine-scale individual sampling, and combined one mitochondrial gene (cytochrome b) and 15 microsatellites markers in a landscape genetics approach to: (1) delimit and characterise the range of S. s. bernardezi ; (2) identify patterns of introgression and quantify levels of admixture between pueriparous and larviparous subspecies in each contact zone; and (3) evaluate the role of environmental and geographic factors in explaining genetic admixture between the different subspecies. Considering previous studies examining phenotypic and/or genetic patterns across northern Iberian populations of S. salamandra 29 , 31 , 35 – 38 , we hypothesize that some degree of genetic admixture occurs between subspecies in all contact zones. However, we expect the level of admixture to depend upon the environmental heterogeneity in each area and, therefore, we expect reduced rates of hybridization under IBE or IBR scenarios.…”

“…Salamandra s. bernardezi and S. s. fastuosa are relatively small salamanders (body size up to 180 mm 27 ), with stripe colouration pattern (dorsal yellow and black bands), and round snout 29 . While the former is strictly pueriparous 27 , 37 , the latter is mostly larviparous despite also presenting pueriparity across its range 34 (Fig.…”
