Abstract
Evaluating age and growth rate in wild salamanders has been always a challenging task. Because salamanders usually do not show specific visible signs of aging, the age of wild individuals is usually estimated from their size (Staub 2016). Knowing the growth rate, the age of sexual maturity, and the overall lifespan of the species is of key importance to properly understand population dynamics and the species reproductive potential (Marvin 2001, Lunghi et al. 2018).
