Axolotl

“Ten to fiteen inches long, of a brownish or grayish color, spotted with black. On each side of the neck there is a large aperture, within which there are branchial arches: they are also projecting branched gills attached to the opercula or flaps, which close these orifices.” — Goodrich, 1859
