Authorities disagree as to whether Salientia is a superorder that includes the order Anura, or whether Anura is a sub-order of the order Salientia.

Anura is divided into three suborders which are broadly accepted by the scientific community but the relationships between some families remains unclear.

For instance, Anura is the name of the order of frogs but also is the name of a genus of plants ( although not current: it is a synonym ); Aotus is the genus of golden peas and night monkeys ; Oenanthe is the genus of wheatears and water dropworts, Prunella is the genus of accentors and self-heal, and Proboscidea is the order of elephants and the genus of devil's claws.

Salientia ( Latin salere ( salio ), " to jump ") is a stem group including modern frogs in the order Anura and their close fossil relatives the " proto-frogs " ( e. g., Triadobatrachus and Czatkobatrachus ).

The main evolutionary changes in this species involved the shortening of the body and the loss of the tail and it is likely that the evolution of modern Anura was complete by the Jurassic period.

A toad is any of a number of species of amphibians in the order Anura ( frogs ) characterized by dry, leathery skin, short legs, and snout-like parotoid glands.

Separating the Anura into the Archaeo -, Meso-and Neobatrachia is somewhat controversial, and as more research is done and more knowledge is gained it is even becoming less clear, because many characteristics used for this differentiation apply to more than one group.

Approximately 88 % of amphibian species are classified in the order Anura.

Anura includes all modern frogs and any fossil species that fit within the anuran definition.

Amphibious and amphibiotic animals, like frogs ( the order Anura ), while they do require water, are separated into their own environmental classification.
