The Genus Ommatotriton is a monograph on the salamander genus Ommatotriton (banded newts).
It became apparent early on that the species living on the western Black Sea coast differed significantly from those from northeast Turkey. This was ultimately taken into account by creating two subspecies and later species. Eventually it was given its correct genus name again, Ommatotriton. The scientific interest in banded newts is well founded. But there is another motivation for studying the species. Anyone who has ever observed the male's courtship game will be fascinated by the breathtaking beauty of the animal. A deeply serrated high crest, a blue high tail fringe, golden shiny flanks. A newt bursting with vitality and strength. Getting to know it and perhaps even caring for it in your own terrarium is a joy.
