The evolution of parental care in salamanders by Balázs Vági, Daniel Marsh, Gergely Katona, Zsolt Végvári, Robert P. Freckleton, András Liker, Tamás Székely

“…Using 181 species that represent all major lineages of an early vertebrate group, the salamanders and newts (Caudata, salamanders henceforth) here we show that fertilisation mode is tied to parental care: male-only care occurs in external fertilisers, whereas female-only care exclusively occurs in internal fertilisers. …”
