Newt

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

The common name applied to various classes of amphibians closely resembling the salamanders. The form is more slender than that of salamanders, their habits are more active, and they are oviparous. The different species are strictly air-breathers. They are aquatic in habits, and though the larval gills fall off when the animal is about three months old, they retain the larval tail.
