Description
FIGURE 17. A Grand Bay paratype (AUM 45885/RAP1107) of Desmognathus pascagoula in life on isolated (a) and naturalistic (b) backgrounds. Note the bright orange postocular stripe shared by all adult specimens, and the resemblance to the Ward Bayou paratype in terms of the distinct coloration on the dorsal surface of the tail, dark overall coloration, and visibility of the ventrolateral portholes on the body and lateral row of "portholes" on the tail.
