List of amphibians organizes the class of amphibian by family and subfamilies and mentions the number of species in each of them. The list below largely follows Darrel Frost's ''Amphibian Species of the World'' (ASW), Version 5.5 (31 January 2011). Another classification, which largely follows Frost, but deviates from it in part is the one of AmphibiaWeb, by the University of California, Berkeley. The major differences between these two classifications are: * Frost's ASW has split several families off from other families (i.e. elevated to distinct families), whereas AmphibiaWeb has not (i.e., keeping them within the original families as subfamilies): * * From Dendrobatidae: Aromobatidae * * From Myobatrachidae: Limnodynastidae * * From Ranidae: Ceratobatrachidae, Dicroglossidae, Mantellidae, Micrixalidae, Nyctibatrachidae, Petropedetidae, Phrynobatrachidae, Ptychadenidae, Pyxicephalidae, Ranixalidae, Rhacophoridae * AmphibiaWeb has also split a few families off from other families (i.e. elevated to distinct families), where Frost's ASW has not (i.e., keeping them within the original families): * * From Alytidae: Discoglossidae * * From Leiopelmatidae: Ascaphidae * * From Ambystomatidae: Dicamptodontidae * * From Caeciliidae: Scolecomorphidae, Typhlonectidae * * From Ichthyophiidae: Uraeotyphlidae ==Class Amphibia== There are a total of 6771 amphibian species 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of amphibians」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
