Salamanders typically have a varying number of chromosomes depending on the species, but they generally possess a diploid number of chromosomes that can range from 14 to over 60. Therefore, the haploid number, which is half of the diploid number, would be approximately 7 to 30 chromosomes. For example, the common eastern tiger salamander (Ambystoma tigrinum) has a diploid number of 28, resulting in a haploid number of 14.
