salamader identification

[urd]

i have recently caught three salamanders, but as we have no salamanders native to england i was hoping someone on here could help me identify them. they are common pets over here so my guess is they were released or escaped.

the largest is about 4 inches including tail. they are very dark brown/black and have white warts/spots down their sides. there bellies are very like fire bellied toads but are yellow and black instead of red and black.

thanks for any replies,
nick

no, its whole body is black/brown, only its underside is coloured, exept for the white spots.
