Spermatophore: A small packet of sperm cells.

Cloaca: The genital tracts of amphibians, reptiles and birds, the cloaca is used to expel urine and feces. During mating, the male newt can release spermatophore from his cloaca and the female picks it up with hers in a process called amplexus. But some male newts fertilize the eggs without contact.
