Description

It is suggested that the Japanese fire-bellied newts mature and enter the water for reproduction after three-years of living on land. It is important to clarify the lives of juveniles on land for their conservation. However there have been few scientific studies about the ecological aspects of lives of the juveniles. The present study was performed to clarify the places where the juveniles and adults stay on land near streams for reproduction. The results were as follows. (1) The juveniles were found at various places in the investigation area. Some were present near the stream and others were present near the boundary of the investigation area far from the stream. In regard to the distances of juvenile-discovered places from the stream there was no difference, between female and male juveniles, nor between smaller and larger juveniles. (2) The adult newts were found at places close to the stream than the juveniles.
