Topic: NARRS 2008
Hi, just wondering if anyone can help... I'm working on an electronic key for the uk reptiles and amphibians and was hoping that you might be able to help me with a diffinitive difference between newts and lizards. Obviously one is a reptile, the other an amphibian, and I can clearly see which is which, but these keys are used by kids who've never seen either before and I'm struggling to find a question that splits the two groups for those who don't just 'know'. Any ideas? Any constructive advice would be gratefully received! Lou  |

To the untrained eye, they are both of similar body shapes, have legs and a tail, I just can't think of the right wording to give a definitive split. Any ideas? Any constructive advice would be gratefully received! Lou |

haha, I can imagine. Thanks so much for that, I had already gone for the scales/no scales split but the toe fact will be an interesting addition to the species info. Thanks Gemma, much appreciated! Lou  |
