The Triturus cristatus (great crested newt) eDNA detection kit is able to detect the amfibian species Triturus cristatus in all water samples worldwide and contains enough materials for 200 reactions. The kit is based on the fast, sensitive, and proven primers/probe qPCR technique. The kit contains primers and a probe for detecting a highly specific sequence present on the mitochondrial DNA of the species Triturus cristatus.
Species information
The northern crested newt, also known as the great crested newt or warty newt (Triturus cristatus) is a newt in the family Salamandridae. The range of the northern crested newt covers most of Europe, although the species is not found in Southern Europe. The northern edge of its range runs through northern France, Great Britain and southern Scandinavia to the Republic of Karelia in Russia; the southern margin runs through central France, southwest Romania, Moldavia and Ukraine, heading from there into central Russia and through the Ural Mountains. The eastern extent of the great crested newt’s range reaches into Western Siberia, running from the Perm Krai to the Kurgan Oblast.
Outside of the breeding season, great crested newts are forest-dwellers and inhabit coniferous, mixed and deciduous forests, as well as bushland, meadows, and parks and gardens. In the southern extent of their range and on the edges of steppe environments, they also inhabit insular forests.
In English: Northern crested newt or great crested newt
