Meanings of batrachia in English

All these amphiblastic vertebrates, Petromyzon and Cestracion, Accipenser and Ceratodus, and also the salamanders and batrachia, belong to the old, conservative groups of our stem.

The metamorphosis goes farther in a third order of Amphibia, the Batrachia or Anura, than in the salamander.

In Batrachia and Reptilia the stomach is in most cases a simple sac, marked off from the oesophagus only by increased calibre.

The same applies to the most advanced of the Amphibia, the Batrachia (frogs and toads); some of them have entirely lost the gill-bearing larva form.
