Description
axolotl, Mexican salamander (Ambystoma mexicanum)

Русский: Аксолотль- неотеническая личинка некоторых видов амбистом, земноводных из семейства амбистомовых. Особенность аксолотля состоит в том, что он достигает половой зрелости и становится способным к размножению, не превратившись во взрослую форму, не претерпев метаморфоз.
English: The axolotl also known as a Mexican salamander (Ambystoma mexicanum) or a Mexican walking fish, is a neotenic salamander, closely related to the tiger salamander.Although the axolotl is colloquially known as a "walking fish", it is not a fish, but an amphibian. Axolotls are unusual among amphibians in that they reach adulthood without undergoing metamorphosis. Instead of developing lungs and taking to land, the adults remain aquatic and gilled.

Although the axolotl is colloquially known as a "walking fish", it is not a fish, but an amphibian. The species originates from numerous lakes, such as Lake Xochimilco underlying Mexico City. Axolotls are unusual among amphibians in that they reach adulthood without undergoing metamorphosis. Instead of developing lungs and taking to land, the adults remain aquatic and gilled.
