The alpine newt (Ichthyosaura alpestris) is a newt of the family Salamandridae. It was formerly known as Triturus alpestris and Mesotriton alpestris. Alpine newts were originally confined to Central Europe and mountainous Southern Europe, as well as having isolated populations on the northern Iberian Peninsula and in Italy.
