Vertebrates use different pigmentation strategies to adapt to various environments. A large amount of research has been done on disclosing the mechanisms of pigmentation strategies in vertebrates either under light, or, living in constant darkness. However, less attention has been paid to non-obligate, darkness dwellers. Red-spotted toothed toads Oreolalax rhodostigmatus (Megophryidae; Anura) from the karst mountainous region of southwestern China are non-obligate cave dwellers.

The study of actinomycetes strains from mountain soils are important because they are an extreme environment which has not been extensively studied but is believed to have a large diversity of organisms that have not yet been discovered. On this basis, it is presumed that the chances of isolating novel actinomycetes from these soils are high.
