The Coeur d'Alene salamander, ''Plethodon idahoensis'', is a species of woodland salamander (''Plethodon'') in the family of lungless salamanders (Plethodontidae) found in northern Idaho, western Montana, and southeastern British Columbia.〔〔 This species was discovered in 1939 by James R. Slater and John W. Slipp on the south shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene in northern Idaho.〔 It was once considered to be a subspecies of Van Dyke's salamander, as ''Plethodon vandykei idahoensis'', but appears to be a distinct and separate species as originally suggested by Slater and Slipp (1940). ==Description== ''P. idahoensis'' specimens are slender salamanders from two to four inches in length. The adult has a nasolabial groove, parotoid glands, and parasphenoid teeth. Coloration and markings key to characterizing this species include a dark ground color with a yellow-gold dorsal stripe that extends the length of the organism, as well as ventral yellow patches on the throat. The toes of the Coeur d'Alene salamander are shorter than those of the long-toed salamander, which aids in distinguishing the two species. The eggs of the Coeur d'Alene salamander have a unique appearance, as well. They are not pigmented and occur in grape-like clusters, attached via a single thread.
