title: Ichthyosaura randeckensis
text: Ichthyosaura randeckensis is a fossil newt species in the family Salamandridae. It was described in 2013 from a Miocene volcanic lake deposit, the Randeck Maar Formation, in Germany. The fossil specimen is fully articulated and 3–4 centimetres (1.2–1.6 in) long. A phylogenetic analysis found the species to be the sister species of the extant alpine newt, and the authors therefore placed it in the same genus. Later analysis by other authors did not confirm this, however; they suggested I. randeck
