Caecilians are long-bodied, limbless amphibians that look similar to earthworms because of segmental rings around their body. Although they are not exactly amphibian-looking, their bones, teeth, fat bodies and other structures show that they are related to salamanders and frogs.

They’ve also developed venom resistance FIFTEEN times (source) and are themselves possibly the only venomous amphibians (source)
