Salamanders were a type of amphibian that could be found in the galaxy. The frilled newt was a type of salamander that could be found in the planet Koboh. They frequented the planet's rock pools and waters of the Dredger Gorge region to cool down, and were too evasive to pin down in the water.[1] The mucous salamander was a type of salamander native to the[3] moon[4] Yavin 4.[3] Salamanders could also be found on the planet Thule.[2] The mouths of the Whippomorn species were as wide as that of a salamander.[5]
