The Newsletter always contains a brief update of Axolotl Colony news , plus items of general interest to amphibian biologists, especially those working with axolotls and other urodeles. Examples are short articles describing methods or techniques, announcements, information on animal husbandry, breeding, and disease control, as well as informal reviews aimed at an audience of biologists working outside of the authors' own fields. Results from undergraduate research projects are also encouraged. The first issue appeared in 1976, and for four years the Newsletter was distributed semi-annually. Thus far 27 issues have appeared, the latest being the Fall 1998 issue.
Back issues are available.
Beginning in 1999, the Axolotl Newsletter is no longer distributed in paper format. Instead, it is published online only.
