  • Lupe, can different species within this genus be visually distinguished? If so, please nominate this in the scope of its species if the species doesn't already have a VI. Also, the English vernacular name should be included in parentheses at the end of your scope in regular text. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:39, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
scope changed to species and vernacular name added (only Japanese since it's endemic to Japan) --Lupe (talk) 20:43, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't like to insist on English, but I didn't create the guidelines you can see at Commons:Valued image scope#Animals. Please have a look there. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:36, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I did and like I said this species doesn't have an english vernacular name. Thank you Lupe (talk) 15:17, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
w:Hynobius has "Asian salamander" as an English vernacular name for the genus; https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/738159-Hynobius-fossigenus has "Japanese Rift Salamander" for this species, accompanied by this photo! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:37, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
alright, but I put in quotation marks since it's just from some webpage. The species was first described in 2018 here. That's also where the image is from --Lupe (talk) 15:44, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
