The common basilisk (Basiliscus basiliscus), also known as the Jesus Christ lizard, holds the record for the fastest speed achieved by any amphibian. It can run on water for short distances at speeds of up to 5 feet per second (1.5 meters per second) to escape predators.

Before aminotes became the dominant tetrapods, several giant amphibian-like tetrapods existed. The largest known was the crocodile-like Prionosuchus, which reached a length of 9 m (30 ft). Frogs (Anura). Easily the largest member of the largest order of amphibians is the African Goliath frog (Conraua goliath). The maximum size of this species is a weight of 3.8 kg (8.4 lb) and a snout-to-vent length of 35 cm (14 in). The largest of the toads is the Cane Toad. Caecilian (Gymnophiana).
