Oedipina parvipes


Oedipina parvipes (common name: Colombian worm salamander) is a species of salamander in the family Plethodontidae. It is found in western Colombia and northwestern Ecuador. Its type locality is Cáceres, Antioquia. It may occur further north to Panama and Costa Rica, but these records require confirmation as the species is morphologically indistinguishable from Costa Rican Oedipina uniformis. Its natural habitat is humid lowland forest, living in leaf-litter.
