Exercise 7
Members of the Gymnophiona are tropical burrowing amphibians called caecilians. Members of the Caudata are salamanders. Most salamanders are terrestrial. They reproduce using a spermatophore for internal fertilization. Development usually involves aquatic larval stages and metamorphosis to a terrestrial adult. Members of the order Anura are the frogs and toads. They lack tails as adults and hindlimbs are long and muscular. Fertilization is external and eggs and larvae are usually aquatic. Larvae metamorphose into adults.
