A newt is a type of salamander, that undergoes metamorphosis from a larval form (an eft) to an adult form, in a similar way that tadpoles turn into frogs. They have amazing powers of regeneration, that led to the legend that they live forever.
Here's the link to the wikipedia page:

Have a look at the entry for axolotl as well, another member of the slamander family, popular as pets.
They are types of amphibians ( lissamphibians), along with frogs and toads

a newt is a water based lizard in the uk at least, i would imagine they are quite widespread. the nearest spelling of a sea based creature is the nautilus, a red and white striped shell snail type creature that is either a snail or squid related? sorry i do not really know anything about them
