Amphibians have external fertilization and anamniotic eggs, they do not mate but show amplexusor behaviour . Reptiles have internal fertilization , amniotic eggs and matting .
Amphibian eggs and Fish eggs are usually found with a layer of a jelly like substance coating the egg. Reptile eggs are found with an egg that is protected with a shell.
Reptilian eggs often have a hard or leathery shell protecting them - amphibian eggs do not. Amphibians like frogs and salamanders lay eggs that almost look like balls of gel or slime, so they must be laid somewhere moist. Because reptile eggs have a protective shell, they can be laid in more varied areas than amphibian eggs can.
