 | | Amphiumidae is part of the suborder Salamandroidea, the advanced salamanders, all of which are internal fertilizers. | | | Salamandroidea differs from Cryptobranchoidea in that the angular and prearticular bones in the lower jaw are fused (in extant species), and all species are internal fertilizers (Larson, 2004). | | | There are three North American fossil species known from the upper Cretaceous through the upper Miocene. |

| | Both forelimbs and hindlimbs are extremely reduced in size and appear nonfunctional, although the animals move them. | | | These characteristics were assembled from a large number of original sources by Duellman and Trueb (1986), Larson (1991) and Larson and Dimmick (1993). | | | Absence of characteristics found in other salamanders is noted where it is important for distinguishing amphiumas from other salamanders and/or determining their relationships to other salamanders. |

| | Most salamanders live in the Northern Hemisphere; they are absent in the Australo-Papuan and Ethiopian regions. | | | At the family level, the greatest diversity is in the Nearctic region, where all families (except Hynobiidae) occur, and five families (Ambystomatidae, Amphiumidae, Dicamptodontidae, Rhyacotritonidae, and Sirenidae) are endemic. |
