Description from Wikipedia

The caecilians (sg. pronounced /siːˈsɪliən/) are an order (Gymnophiona) of amphibians that superficially resemble earthworms or snakes. They mostly live hidden in the ground, which makes them the least explored order of amphibians, and widely unknown.

No range data available.
