0 a small animal that looks like a lizard but has soft skin and lives both on land and in water
1 a piece of kitchen equipment with which food can be heated at a very high temperature from above, used especially in the kitchens of restaurants:

The dish is then placed under a salamander until the cheese browns.
A salamander is a commercial grill that can be heated to high temperatures.
The interaction of ionic currents mediating single spike activity in retinal amacrine cells of the tiger salamander.
One salamander was severely affected with associated tissue changes, including accumulations of melanomacrophages.
The spatial distribution of excitatory and inhibitory inputs to ganglion cell dendrites in the tiger salamander retina.
Taken together, we thought that it was important to investigate the number and spatial arrangement of major cell populations in the salamander retina.
The basis for this sustained current in tiger salamander retinal ganglion cells is unknown; perhaps it reflects a biphasic inactivation behavior of one channel type.
