Synonyms
Pleurodeles waltlii (incorrect spelling)
The Iberian ribbed newt, gallipato or Spanish ribbed newt (Pleurodeles waltl) is a newt endemic to the central and southern Iberian Peninsula and Morocco.[2] It is the largest European newt species and it is also known for its sharp ribs which can puncture through its sides, and as such is also called the sharp-ribbed newt.
This species should not be confused with the different species with similar common name, the Iberian newt (Lissotriton boscai).
