Does anyone here have caresheets of bolitoglossa care, specially for the species of more hot conditions and southern places.
Thanks guys

Bolitoglossids are pretty niche specific and it may be difficult to have a care sheet for some of the species. This can also very a lot depending if the salamander in question was a Thorius, Oedpina or Pseudoeurycea.
As far as I know the two commonly imported species are B. dolflini and B. mexicana and I have worked with both species. At one time, my employer had the only stable group in USA institutions of B. dolflini.
For which species are you looking for information?

I was looking for info on B.altamazonica and other Bolitoglossa, from venezuela, Suriname or costa rica, that are species easier tfor me to get.
Thanks again

I am unaware of any care sheets for salamanders from this region (but would be very interested in some) but there is some good ecological information available to give a good start on captivew husbandry.
