Rare
Animals Zhenghai Newt, amphibia.
It is a rare species only distributed in Beilun
District, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province. In
1932, the species was discovered in Ruiyan
Temple Forest park at Chaiqiao Town, Beilun
District, Ningbo City for the first time. In
1984, it was renamed Zhenghai Newt, and it is
the only special wild animal named with the
local place name. In 1989, it was affirmed
National 2nd level important protection wild
animal by the State Council.
According to the
long-term observation of Chengdu Bioresearch
Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences and
other units, at present, there are only 350
Zhenghai newts distributed in Beilun Forests,
which is much fewer than that of pandas and
Xinjiang salamanders.
As to newts, only two
species are known now, namely Zhenghai newt, and
Ryukyu newt (only distributed on Ryukyu Islands
in Japan). According to the data of Mainland
China and Ryukyu Islands, the species has a
history of at least over one million years, and
it should be the living fossil. |
