The fire salamander or common fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) is possibly the best-known salamander species in Europe. Common fire salamanders live in central European forests and are more common in hilly areas.

The alpine salamander (Salamandra atra) is a shiny black salamander found in the central, eastern and Dinaric Alps.

The alpine newt (Ichthyosaura alpestris) is a newt of the salamander order Caudata (or Urodela) in the class of amphibians. It was formerly known as Triturus alpestris and Mesotriton alpestris.
