Chiropterotriton mosaueri ist ein Vertreter aus der Familie der Lungenlosen Salamander, der in Höhlen lebt. Er ist endemisch in Mexiko beheimatet und wurde nach seiner Erstbeschreibung 1941 erst 2010 wiederentdeckt.[1] Insgesamt ist nur sehr wenig über die Tiere bekannt.
Chiropterotriton mosaueri ist ein mittelgroßer Vertreter der Lungenlosen Salamander. Er wird etwa 10 cm lang, wobei der im Querschnitt runde Schwanz mit ca. 6 cm etwas länger als der restliche Körper ist. Seine Schnauze ist verhältnismäßig groß und kurz mit vorstehender Oberlippe. Die Gliedmaßen sind sehr lang und enden in flachen Fingern und Zehen, die jeweils über Schwimmhäute verfügen. Auf beiden Seiten des Körpers sind 12 oder 13 Furchen zu finden, die sich seitlich bis über den Bauch hinziehen. Die Tiere sind dunkelbraun gefärbt und weisen oberseits kein erkennbares Muster auf. Auf der heller gefärbten Unterseite sind einige dunklere Flecken erkennbar.[2]
Die Art wurde bisher lediglich in einer Höhle in der Nähe von Zimapán im mexikanischen Bundesstaat Hidalgo in 2160 m Höhe gefunden.[3] Die exakte Lage der Höhle wurde nicht beschrieben; sie liegt am Rande des Nationalparks Los Mármoles.
Chiropterotriton mosaueri lebt in feuchten Höhlen und Erdspalten in Kiefern-Eichen-Wäldern. Aufgrund von Abholzungen rund um die Höhlen und die damit verbundene Austrocknung schwindet der Lebensraum der Tiere.[2]

The cave splayfoot salamander (Chiropterotriton mosaueri) is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is endemic to Mexico, specifically in the Sierra Madre Oriental pine–oak forests[2] of the northern region of Hidalgo, Mexico.[3] The species was thought to be extinct for over 70 years since its first observation and a study of five salamanders made by Robert Livingston and Harold T. Woodall in 1937.[2] In 2010, this species was spotted for the first time since its 1941 description[4] by Dr. Sean Rovito who identified two individuals during his search for other lost amphibian species.[5]
When preserved in alcohol they found the specimens had an overall dark brown coloration with a light tan underbelly.[2] Features of interest were their webbed "spatulate" feet, number of costal grooves (12–13) and tails which were slightly longer in length than the head and body combined.[2] Their proportionally longer limbs, shorter heads, and large quantity of vomerine teeth set them apart from other species of Chiropterotriton.[2] Their natural habitat is believed to be damp caves where they were initially discovered, however the exact locations are unknown.[2] They are threatened by habitat loss due to deforestation and the expansion of agriculture in the region which causes the caves to become dry.[3]
The cave splayfoot salamander and the bigfoot splayfoot salamander (Chiropterotriton magnipes) are considered to be sympatric since both are rare species and observed in the same cave.[6]

Chiropterotriton mosaueri es una especie de salamandra en la familia Plethodontidae.[1]
Es endémica del norte de Hidalgo, México. Sólo ha sido encontrada una vez, en una cueva en zona de bosque de pino y roble a unos 2160 msnm. Se reproduce por desarrollo directo. Está amenazada de extinción debido a la deforestación de los bosques que rodean las cuevas, lo que genera la desecación de estas.

Chiropterotriton mosaueri est une espèce d'urodèles de la famille des Plethodontidae[1].
Cette espèce est endémique au Mexique. Elle est connue uniquement de deux endroits, les grottes près de la ville de Durango et le parc national Los Mármoles dans le nord de l'Hidalgo. Elle se rencontre à environ 2 160 m d'altitude[2].
Le mâle holotype mesure 108,9 mm de longueur totale dont 46,4 mm de longueur standard et 62,5 mm de queue[3].
Cette espèce est nommée en l'honneur de Walter Mosauer[3].

Chiropterotriton mosaueri is een salamander uit de familie van de longloze salamanders. De soort werd voor het eerst wetenschappelijk beschreven door Harold T. Woodall in 1941. Oorspronkelijk werd de wetenschappelijke naam Oedipus mosaueri gebruikt.[2] Deze salamander werd voor het eerst ontdekt in 1937 en beschreven in 1941, maar werd nadien pas in 2010 opnieuw waargenomen.
Chiropterotriton mosaueri is donkerbruin op de rug en geelbruin op de buik. De salamander bereikt een lichaamslengte tussen 39,6 millimeter en 46,4 mm, de smallere staart is tussen 46,5 en 63,9 mm lang. De poten zijn vrij lang in vergelijking met verwante soorten. De tenen hebben een spatelvormig uiteinde en dragen verbonden zwemvliezen.[3]
Chiropterotriton mosaueri leeft in delen van Midden-Amerika en komt endemisch voor in het noordoosten van Mexico, meer bepaald in de Oostelijke Sierra Madre. Hij komt er voor in vochtige grotten in het woud. De salamander deelt zijn habitat onder meer met de verwante soort C. magnipes. De soort is aangetroffen op een hoogte rond 2160 meter boven zeeniveau.

Chiropterotriton mosaueri é uma espécie de salamandra da família Plethodontidae.
É endémica do México.
Os seus habitats naturais são: cavernas.
Está ameaçada por perda de habitat.
Já não era vista desde a sua primeira descrição em 1941, até que foi reencontrada em 2010 por uma expedição organizada pela Conservação Internacional, denominada "À procura dos Anfíbios Perdidos". Sean Rovito, da Universidade Nacional Autónoma do México descobriu vários indivíduos numa gruta na província de Hidalgo, no México.[2]

Chiropterotriton mosaueri là một loài kỳ giông trong họ Plethodontidae. Nó là loài đặc hữu của México. Môi trường sống tự nhiên của chúng là hang. Nó bị đe dọa do mất môi trường sống. Vào năm 2010, loài này đã được thấy lần đầu tiên kể từ khi mô tả vào năm 1941.[1]
