Tissue from one member of this class can be made into deliciously-named Keller explant sandwiches, which provide valuable insight into gastrulation.

The fungal infection chytridiomycosis affects this class, whose Paleozoic origins are usually traced to the orders Temnospondyli and Lepospondyli. Important fossil members of this class include (*) Acanthostega, particularly in regards to its evolutionary relationship with the earlier Tiktaalik. Weird-looking members of this class include a burrowing order often mistaken for large earthworms, the caecilians, as well as the Axolotl and the order caudata, which unlike other vertebrates can regenerate lost limbs. First evolving during the Devonian from lobe-finned fish and including popular model organism Xenopus, for 10 points, name this class of chordates that includes salamanders, toads, and frogs.
