Abstract
We isolated and screened 68 microsatellite loci from the spotted salamander Ambystoma maculatum in Missouri USA Eighteen polymorphic loci were identified and pooled into two multiplex reactions These loci are a needed addition to the known loci for A maculatum which were developed in a different geographic region and are unsuitable for population or landscape genetic analyses in Missouri To effectively protect and manage this species regionallyrelevant studies of population genetic structure and connectivity are necessary
