Clinal Variation in Reproductive Modes and Offspring Body Condition Across a Contact Zone of a Bimodal Viviparous Salamander We examined clinal gradients in reproductive modes and associated offspring body condition across a hybrid zone between two bimodal viviparous subspecies of Salamandra salamandra. We found a clear cl...
