[vernalpool] Soon near Boston?/ Who Congresses?

 

Wood frogs are chorusing, but so far I've seen no sign of spotted salamanders at the Minuteman pools in Lexington.

I'm writing an article for our local paper about vernal pools, and finding conflicting information about who congresses when spotted salamanders mate. Some sources say only males, some say females also participate congresses. I thought males came to pool first and females later. It seems that the critters I've seen in congresses are male! Any help here?

Thanks,
Fran Ludwig
