Hynobius yangi, the Kori salamander,[3] is a species of salamander endemic to southeastern South Korea.[4] It is a lentic-breeding species similar to the Korean salamander (H. leechi) but is distinguished by factors including tail shape and dorsal coloration. The species is known from the vicinity of the type locality in Gijang County in northeastern Busan[2] and from the nearby Ulju County in western Ulsan.[3]
