Some of you may be familiar with the [chytrid fungus (*Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis*)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batrachochytrium_dendrobatidis) which was discovered in 1998 and affects primarily frogs. Since then, this fungus has had a devastating impact on amphibian populations world-wide. In 2013, a related species of fungus was discovered in the Netherlands: [*Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batrachochytrium_salamandrivorans). This species affects primarily salamander species, and is currently decimating salamander populations in Europe. As of today, *B. salamandrivorans* is known to occur in Europe and Asia. In the recent study titled "[Anticipating the potential impacts of Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans on Neotropical salamander diversity](https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/btp.13042)", the authors estimate the impact that an accidental introduction of this species to the American tropics would have on tropical salamander populations. Unsurprisingly, the impact is likely to be catastrophic.
