Evolution update

Well maybe not, but there is news of a new species of frog found in a remote area of Indonesia. What makes it different? It has no lungs and breathes through its skin. (It reminds me of the story of Buddy Ebsen who was originally selected to play the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz but was allergic to the paint; and also of the rumour that someone had died on a Bond film when they were completely covered with paint and had "suffocated". That may be one to check on Snopes.)
