Description

Excerpt from The Royal Natural History, Vol. 5: Section X Although some of the larger kinds prey upon small fish, none of the newts and salamanders can be said to be harmful to man; while the terrestrial forms are defended against all foes, except fish, frogs, and snakes, by the poisonous secretion exuded by the glands of their skins; water-newts are, however, devoured by aquatic birds and mammals. The reputed noxious characters of the common salamander, and its alleged immunity to the effects of fire, are, of course, purely fabulous. The existing members of the order are divided into four families. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
