## Abstract Eastern redβspotted newts are ectotherms, aquatic as adults, and active yearβround, breeding even during winter under ice. Earlier research, with fieldβcaptured newts, showed a correlation between seasonal changes in the activity of some muscle metabolic enzymes and in the behavior of t
Genetic variation is described at 15 loci in 2 neotenic and 12 nonneotenic populations of red-spotted newts. Though high levels of genetic similarity (I = 0.990) were found among all populations, allele frequencies at six of the eight most polymorphic loci show significant heterogeneity across popul
