Might be more complicated... in both the MPT and its bootstrap test in the
recent Can. J. Earth Sci. paper on *Solenodonsaurus* (can't find it at the
moment) Urodela comes out as paraphyletic with respect to Gymnophiona. In
some SVP meeting abstracts there's also the idea that frogs are
temnospondyls while the other lissamphibians are not. Let's joyfully wait
for the paper... :^)
