I found this salamander sitting on a concrete stoop outside my basement door. It acted rather sluggish and was a bit dry so I put it in the creek to see if it would revive a bit. It seemed to be a bit better once it was wet again but only swam for a second then just sank into a deeper part of the creek and disappeared.

The "Slimy Salamander Complex" is a large collection of (probably interbreeding) species that are notoriously difficult to tell apart in the field. Nevertheless, because of the region where this was photographed (Francis Marion National Forest of South Carolina), and the higher density of white markings on the lower sides, I'm calling this one as 'variolatus.' -- If anyone has any other ideas, though, please feel free to correct this ID.
