    http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-transitional/part1a.html
    
    Extractions: Part 1B The term "transitional fossil" is used at least two different ways on talk.origins, often leading to muddled and stalemated arguments. I call these two meanings the "general lineage" and the "species-to-species transition": This is a sequence of similar genera or families , linking an older group to a very different younger group. Each step in the sequence consists of some fossils that represent a certain genus or family, and the whole sequence often covers a span of tens of millions of years. A lineage like this shows obvious morphological intermediates for every major structural change, and the fossils occur roughly (but often not exactly) in the expected order. Usually there are still gaps between each of the groups few or none of the speciation events are preserved. Sometimes the individual specimens are not thought to be directly ancestral to the next-youngest fossils (i.e., they may be "cousins" or "uncles" rather than "parents"). However, they are assumed to be closely related to the actual ancestor, since they have intermediate morphology compared to the next-oldest and next-youngest "links". The major point of these general lineages is that animals with intermediate morphology existed at the appropriate times, and thus that the transitions from the proposed ancestors are fully plausible. General lineages are known for almost all modern groups of vertebrates, and make up the bulk of this FAQ.

Interesting note : Axolotls do not go through metamorphosis like the rest of amphibians. They maintain their gills, which are visible on either side of their heads.

    Extractions: – Researcher Steven Whitfield Andy Nelson – Staff By Moises Velasquez-Manoff from the June 21, 2007 edition E-mail Print Letter to the Editor Republish ... digg Page 1 of 2 Monteverde Cloud Forest Preserve, Costa Rica - Since the 1970s, three frog species have disappeared from Puerto Rico's mountain forests, all after unusually warm years. Between 1987 and 1988, the hottest year on record until then, the golden toad and Monteverde harlequin frog disappeared from the Monteverde Cloud Forest Preserve in Costa Rica. That same year, the jambato toad vanished from the highlands of Ecuador, which was also unusually hot and dry. "We have a tendency for species to disappear after warm years," says Alan Pounds, scientist-in-residence at Monteverde. Scientists consider these extinctions part of an ongoing worldwide amphibian die-off. The World Conservation Union (IUCN) estimates that 32 percent of all amphibians are in danger of going extinct. Of 5,918 known species – and new species are constantly being discovered – 165 may have already disappeared. Two-thirds of all harlequin frogs, which range throughout New World tropics, are already gone, Dr. Pounds says. Scientists have blamed habitat loss, increased ultraviolet radiation, pollution, and chytrid, a fungus that humans may have inadvertently transported around the globe.

    Extractions: part of their lives on land. They lay jelly-covered eggs in the water. Amphibians breathe with gills or lungs or through their skin. Baby amphibians live in water and breathe with gills. An amphibian's skin is moist. (They do NOT have scales.) Amphibians are vertebrates they have backbones. Most amphibians live in or near water or in damp places. (newts and salamanders) When fullgrown, they may have either lungs or gills. Amphibians that live in cold climates hibernate during the winter. Some amphibians dig deep burrows to stay moist. Some amphibians can produce a poison. A toad can puff itself up to look larger than it really is. There is a frog that is as small as a dime. One type of frog is as big as a football.

There is an urgent need to determine the scope and severity of the problem and to investigate causes. The U.S. Geological Survey is uniquely qualified to coordinate and lead a cooperative national effort because its scientists have been in the forefront of studying amphibian populations and life history traits, measuring and monitoring environmental characteristics, and conducting research into potential causes of decline. As a result, the Agency formed the National Amphibian Research and Monitoring Initiative (ARMI).
