salamander's

Belonging to lizard-like

Salamander's is the possessive form of salamander, a smooth-skinned amphibian that lives in moist environments and resembles a lizard.

The word appears in contexts describing something belonging to or associated with the creature: a salamander's habitat, a salamander's ability to regenerate limbs.

In culinary use, a salamander is a broiler, so the salamander's heat might refer to cooking equipment.
