Because amphibians largely dwell in aquatic habitats and have highly permeable skin, requiring them to remain near a water source so that they don't dehydrate. Their habits make them amphibious, because while they live in the aquatic habitat, they can come onto land for short periods. They are not reptiles, but are classified as herptiles however, and so they fit within the study of herpetology.
