Abstract
The need for laboratory strains of amphibians has become critical but their development has been neglected. This article describes the current development of husbandry techniques suitable for adoption by small or large laboratories. The existence of defined amphibians as a scientific resource and their availability on a limited basis is announced.Keywords
