Phylum Amphibia is a biological term which describes a group of vertebrates that are able to survive in water as well as on land. Species in this group includes the frogs, toads, turtles, salamanders and karachiites. The last specie in previous examples is recently discovered in a South-Asian country Pakistan's largest city known as Karachi. This recent addition to the Amphibians has successfully satisfied all conditions required to be included in the category. They have "a backbone" which places them in category of vertebrates and over the years they have consistently shown the ability to survive both in water and over the land even without gills and special skin enough to qualify it in Amphibian category. Fortunately I am also an amphibian and the test I have passed last day confirmed my confidence in this regard.
I left my office located at Main Shara-e-Faisel near PAF museum at 4 PM for home (North Nazimabad Town) where I finally reached at 8 PM. The trip was important for me in the sense that being amphibian I have never found opportunity to test my abilities and this day I have successfully proved that I am in-fact an honorable member of this phylum because nearly half the way I confidently swam in all sort of waters.

In this picture one can see an amphibian going through water without any hesitation. The cute little baby amphibian can be seen sitting on strange machine that is also capable to run in water and land alike.
