Merge to Central Asian salamander over monospecific genus name. Loopy30 (talk) 00:43, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Semirechensk salamander" has more reported Google results than "Central Asian salamander". "Semirechensk salamander" is the only vernacular names listed by IUCN and iNaturalist. AmphibiaWeb lists both vernacular names. Amphibian Species of the World lists 3 vernacular names, with sources. "Central Asian salamander" appears in 1 source, "Semirechensk salamander" appears in 4 sources, and "
Siberian salamander" appears in 3 sources (but is also used for another species). "Central Asian salamander" is not the most commonly used vernacular name. Plantdrew (talk) 16:14, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply
