The Turkestanian Salamander (Hynobius turkestanicus) is a species of salamander in the Hynobiidae family^[1]. It is found in possibly Kyrgyzstan, possibly Tajikistan, and possibly Uzbekistan. Several specimens were collected in 1909^[2], but since then the species has not been seen in the wild. None remain in captivity. The turkestanian salamander is currently on the list of 10 Most Wanted Amphibians, a rediscovery effort launched by Conservation International^[3].
