Amphibians are vertebrates of the taxonomic class Amphibia including animals such as frogs and toads (order Anura), salamanders, and caecilians. Thought of as cold-blooded, amphibians are ectotherms, meaning they are unable to regulate their own body temperature ìndependently of the temperature of their surroundings.
This Encyclopaedia of Amphibia gives complete description of different types, which have been drawn from all the classes of amphibians found in India and abroad. The author has tried to prepare a book on each class with specific, important and detailed classification of all arnphibians.
