Chester Hughes in 1939. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, rivers, and freshwater springs. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Parasites
As most animals, the Oklahoma salamander harbours several species of parasites. Among them, the polystomatid monogenean Sphyranura euryceae is a parasite of the gills of the adult salamander.[1]
