Ross, Marcus (2014) Fossil Baramins on Noah's Ark: The "Amphibians". Answers Research Journal, 7: 19. pp. 331-355. ISSN 1937-9056
Here I provide a compendium of extinct "amphibian" groups, representatives of which may have been carried aboard Noah's Ark. Following previous work by the Ark Encounter team, I selected the taxonomic rank of family as a first-order proxy for the biblical "kind." The resulting tabulation places 54 extinct "amphibian" families/kinds on board the Ark. While this number hinges upon taxonomies built upon fossil data (and its inherent shortcomings compared to extant forms), it serves as a reasonable approximation of the number of fossil "amphibians" taken aboard the Ark. When added to previously determined kinds of extant anurans, caudates, and gymnophionans, a total of 248 "amphibian" kinds may have been brought on board the Ark.
