  • Looking for caecilians under ground debris at night in western Panama. These should actually be Gymnopis multiplicata, not Dermophis spp.
    Species represented in this video:
    Copiphora cultricornis - 0:16
    Savage's Worm Salamander (Oedipina savagei) - 0:56 and 6:01
    Gymnopis multiplicata - 1:28, 4:23, and 6:30
    Giant Peppered Cockroach (Archimandrita tesselata) - 3:04
    Camron Mushroom-Tongue Salamander (Bolitoglossa lignicolor) - 3:45
    Pleminiini tribe - 5:33

    I love the Panama content, I never knew caecilians were so abundant over there. Did you ever find out what species it was?

      They should be Gymnopis multiplicata. The owner of the property found a large adult a few days after I left.

    Love your videos, despite me not being a fan of insects and things of that nature. I could never handle all those creatures that way you do with such confidence. It's very impressive to me.

    So cool, I always thought they were adapted only to a digging lifestyle, didn't even know they could swim so well.

    If you're still down there look for some Mecopterans! Namely Bittacus panamensis, if you collect then I'd be interested in the specimens

    It's funny that you mention "termite heads" because caecelians (forget which species) have been documented using a special feeding technique where they bite termites from behind and chomp the body off, leaving the decapitated heads behind‼️ 😂
    (So I'd wager that you're right and they can only digest soft bodied prey)
