Abstract:
The genus Necturus is a group of aquatic salamanders commonly known as waterdogs and mudpuppies. Of the three species occurring in North Carolina, only the Neuse River Waterdog (Necturus lewisi) is endemic to the state. In 1978, a three-year study began to provide information on its life history, habitat preference, and preliminary conservation status.
