Cortland Herpetology Connection Jefferson/Bluespotted complex The Jefferson salamander/blue-spotted salamander complex contains an
interesting mixture of taxa. In New York State, Jefferson salamanders (Ambystoma
jeffersonianum) live in more southern portions of the state except Long
Island, while blue-spotted salamanders (Ambystoma laterale) live in the
more northern portions and on Long Island. These two species contain both
males and females.
