What are the native amphibians of New Zealand?

NEW ZEALAND NATIVE REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS New Zealand is home to relatively few groups of reptiles and amphibians. We have our native Frogs (Leiopelma group), two species of Tuatara - Sphenodon punctatus and Sphenodon guntheri, and two groups of lizards - the Geckos and Skinks. There are some 20 species of Geckos and some 30 species of Skinks. These figures are deliberately general as new species are still being discovered, and some long recognized species are being split into separate species following DNA tests and other genetic methods of profiling. Please note that all New Zealand native reptiles and amphibians, and this includes all geckos and skinks, are protected by law, and can NOT be collected from the wild without written authorization from the New Zealand Department of Conservation (DOC). (N.B. there are three introduced frogs in New Zealand - all Litoria species from Australia and one introduced egg-laying skink - the Rainbow skink (Lampropholis delicata) also from Australia, and these can be collected from the wild without restriction) Geckos have thin soft velvety skin and a flattened body that is covered by small granular scales. On the head, and especially at the edges of the mouth, these scales are often larger. As the gecko grows it periodically sheds its skin in whole or in large pieces. Geckos have a definite head and neck, which easily differentiates them from our native skinks, which have shiny over-lapping scales and are much more streamlined, as well as being much quicker in their movements than geckos. Apart from the Egg-laying Skink (Oligosoma suteri), all New Zealand geckos and skinks give birth to live young. This method of reproduction is called ovoviviparous, and is a little unusual as the great majority of geckos throughout the world, and more than half of the worlds skinks all lay eggs. Geckos usually have twins, while skinks can have between two to eight babies depending on the species. Generally, the larger the species, the more young are born. Babies are born in summer or early autumn (January to May) but different species give birth at different times of the year especially under captive conditions. Young reach maturity at approximate three years of age, but size appears to be the main determining factor in ability to mate. Some geckos in captivity that have been well fed since birth have been known to mate when only two years old and produce viable progeny, although many first births are single babies rather than the usual twins. Little is known about the age to which geckos and skinks will live to in the wild, but the New Zealand Herpetological Society has longevity records of animals in captivity, with an Otago skink reaching 40 years, a maculatus gecko at 37 years, a Duvaucels gecko at 32 years, and various Forest geckos and Elegens elegans geckos at 25 years.
