Riassunto

La notevole somiglianza cariologica fra sette specie di Ambystomatidi, una di Amphiumidi e otto di Plethodontidi è in fav'ore dell'ipotesi di una inclusione delle tre famiglie nello stesso sottordine (Ambystomatoidei). Fra i Plethodontidi, ci sono variazioni nel contenuto di DNA nucleare che non sembrano correlate, come avviene in altri Urodeli, con fenomeni di pedomorfosi o col grado di ploidia.
