Abstract
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An attempt has been made to reconcile the anatomical features of the snout region of the three living orders of the amphibia with one another. It is concluded that the three orders are closely related to one another and that the apparent differences which they do show, are the result of differences in the degree of adaptation to terrestrial life. On balance the evidence indicate that the living amphibia are a monophyletic group.
