Caecilians are a group of limbless amphibians belonging to the order Gymnophiona. They resemble elongated, worm-like creatures with a smooth, slimy skin that can vary in color from brown to gray, often featuring patterns or banding. Typically, they can reach lengths of up to a meter or more, and their bodies are adapted for a burrowing lifestyle, with a segmented appearance and a pointed snout. Unlike frogs and salamanders, caecilians lack limbs and have a more cylindrical shape, making them well-suited for life underground.

Do red-eyed tree frogs have lungs?
Yes they do. All frogs, salamanders and Caecillians have lungs. However the tadpoles do not and develop lungs in the time that they live in water.
Do caecillians have bones?
Yes. Caecillians are of the subclass lissamphibia, which includes anurans (frogs), Urodellans, (salamanders) and gymnophiona (caecillians) The taxonomic progression is as follows: Kingdom: Animalia (not plants, protists, etc.) phylum: chordata (possessing of a spinal chord) subphylum: vertebrata (possessing of a backbone) superclass: tetrapods (tetrapod means four limbs) class: amphibia (both fossil and extant amphibians) subclass: lissamphibia (extant amphibians) Caecillians lost their legs secondarily, that is, their ancestors had legs and their progression toward an increasingly fossorial (burrowing) lifestyle created a selection pressure toward the loss of legs. The clues to this lie in the pectoral girdles where their legs used to articulate. They have a heavily ossified skull for digging, a specialized jaw which locks so they don't get mouthfuls of dirt while digging. They have ribs but they don't encircle the body. many worms are also fossorial but they are in the phylum annelida, not chordata. They have converged on very similar body styles as a result of congruency in their lifestyle. Hope this clears things up.
