Previous enzymatic studies in other families of amphibians have identified the presence of proteases and amylases, which are thought to be secreted from the intermaxillary gland and lingual gland. However, no such studies have been conducted in plethodontid salamanders, and the enzyme contents of these glands are poorly understood. We used immunohistochemistry to identify the presence of amylase, protease, and lipase in the glands of three species of\n                    <jats:italic>Eurycea<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Histological descriptions\u2014based on hematoxylin and eosin staining\u2014of the studied glands are also included. We found that amylase and protease were present in the intermaxillary gland and in the surface epithelium of the tongue. The lingual gland was notably lacking salivary enzymes. Preliminary results indicate the possible presence of lipase in the mouth of plethodontid salamanders. This study confirms the intermaxillary gland as a major salivary organ, while contrasting with the previous understanding of the amphibian lingual gland.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jmor.70135","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,1]],"date-time":"2026-06-01T06:06:21Z","timestamp":1780293981000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Immunohistochemistry of Salivary Enzymes and Morphology of Salivary Glands in\n                    <i>Eurycea<\/i>\n                    (Plethodontidae)"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"287","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-7155-8223","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ethan A.","family":"MacVicar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Gonzaga University Spokane Washington USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5818-6897","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dustin S.","family":"Siegel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Southeast Missouri State University Cape Girardeau Missouri USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ainsley M.","family":"Patrick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Gonzaga University Spokane Washington USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily J.","family":"Allen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Gonzaga University Spokane Washington USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karli S.","family":"Bortner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Gonzaga University Spokane Washington USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8805-0410","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nancy L.","family":"Staub","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology Gonzaga University Spokane Washington USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1670\/16-054"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.archoralbio.2015.05.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1655\/HERPMONOGRAPHS-D-15-00008.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","first-page":"408","volume-title":"Biology of Amphibians","author":"Duellman W.
