Desmognathus quadramaculatus
I am pretty sure that this is a blackbelly salamander. It was really big, for a salamander! I found it under a rock at the base of a waterfall.

Size, range, habitat and look would support a blackbelly http://srelherp.uga.edu/salamanders/desq...
About six inches long and pretty fat for a salamander
It does look like a Desmognathus spp., how big was it?
Does anyone know what species of salamander this is?
