Making forgotten information available: An early study on the Afghanistan Mountain Salamander Paradactylodon (Afghanodon) mustersi
The first study after the official species description of the endemic Afghanistan Mountain Salamander Paradactylodon (Afghanodon) mustersi (Smith, 1940) was published in Kabul, Afghanistan, and only in Dari Persian. We, therefore, provide here an English translation of this paper, together with so far unpublished background information on this rare and endangered amphibian, and on the former scientific German-Afghan cooperation project from the 1960s in the framework of which this study had been performed.
