Evolved to be mostly <a href="/wiki/Semiaquatic" title="Semiaquatic">semiaquatic</a>, amphibians have adapted to inhabit a wide variety of <a href="/wiki/Habitat" title="Habitat">habitats</a>, with most species living in <a href="/wiki/Freshwater_ecosystem" title="Freshwater ecosystem">freshwater</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wetland" title="Wetland">wetland</a> or <a href="/wiki/Terrestrial_ecosystem" title="Terrestrial ecosystem">terrestrial ecosystems</a> (such as <a href="/wiki/Riparian_woodland" class="mw-redirect" title="Riparian woodland">riparian woodland</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fossorial" title="Fossorial">fossorial</a> and even <a href="/wiki/Arboreal" class="mw-redirect" title="Arboreal">arboreal</a> habitats).

Amphibians <a href="/wiki/Cutaneous_respiration" title="Cutaneous respiration">use their skin</a> as a secondary respiratory interface and some small terrestrial <a href="/wiki/Salamander" title="Salamander">salamanders</a> and frogs lack lungs and rely entirely on their skin.

They diversified and became ecologically dominant during the <a href="/wiki/Carboniferous" title="Carboniferous">Carboniferous</a> and <a href="/wiki/Permian" title="Permian">Permian</a> periods, but were later displaced in terrestrial environments by early reptiles and <a href="/wiki/Basal_(phylogenetics)" title="Basal (phylogenetics)">basal</a> <a href="/wiki/Synapsid" class="mw-redirect" title="Synapsid">synapsids</a> (predecessors of mammals). The origin of modern lissamphibians, which first appeared during the Early Triassic, around 250 million years ago, has long been contentious. The most popular hypothesis is that they likely originated from <a href="/wiki/Temnospondyls" class="mw-redirect" title="Temnospondyls">temnospondyls</a>, the most diverse group of prehistoric amphibians, during the Permian period. Another hypothesis is that they emerged from lepospondyls. A fourth group of lissamphibians, the <a href="/wiki/Albanerpetontidae" title="Albanerpetontidae">Albanerpetontidae</a>, became extinct around 2 million years ago.

The species is endangered and known populations are currently in decline.</div><div class="noprint" style="margin-top:0.5em; font-weight:bold; width:100%; text-align:right;"><a href="/wiki/Portal:Amphibians/Selected_picture" title="Portal:Amphibians/Selected picture">More selected pictures</a></div></div> </li> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Marsh_frog_(Pelophylax_ridibundus).jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="Image 9 Marsh frog Photograph credit: Charles James Sharp The marsh frog (Pelophylax ridibundus) is a species of amphibian native to Europe and parts of Asia.
