证据支持的观点,所有的现代两栖类显然有关。这三个生活目构成了一个自然单系群--感觉无尾蛛Lissamphibia sensu Gadow。其他理论进行了简要回顾。最后,试图确定古生代的祖先最近的两栖动物,但现有的证据是矛盾的和不确定的。
Evidence is presented supporting the viewpoint that all the moderns Amphibia are clearly related. It is suggested that the three living orders constitute a natural monophyletic group-the infra-class Lissamphibia sensu Gadow. Other theories are briefly reviewed. Finally an attempt is made to determine the Paleozoic ancestors of the Recent amphibians, but the available evidence is contradictory and inconclusive.
