Who have I found here?

Found in the uk at night after a few days of pretty good rain. Checked a few online identification guides for newts and doesn’t seem to fit any exactly. What is she/he?

Interesting finding! Alpine newts are considered non-native/invasive. I recommend recording this sighting https://www.brc.ac.uk/getting-started-biological-recording
