Abstract
1. 1. Adult long-toed salamanders were collected from three sites ranging in elevation from 420 to 2470 m and acclimated at 800 and 2400 m. 2. 2. Variations in hemoglobin concentration (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) among populations were analyzed. 3. 3. Differences among populations were significant in the 800 m acclimation group but not those acclimated at 2400 m. 4. 4. Significant increases in Hct were associated with acclimation at a higher elevation but concurrent increases in Hb were not observed.
