Almost all salamanders belong tot the Plethonidae-family: the so-called lungless salamanders. They don't have lungs but breathe completely throught their throats and their skin. You could say this is the major adaption of the salamanders. A disadvantage is that as soon as the salamander enters a dry area, it inmediately starts to dehydrate. Most salamanders can only survive in permanent moit environments.

They may also Create a Larvae around their bodies to protect themselves from a some-what attack.
