Pond lizard-like creature (4)

I believe the answer is:

newt

(Other definitions for newt that I've seen before include "Small, lizard-like amphibian" , "The epitome of drunkenness" , "Garden-pond amphibian" , "Small tailed amphibian" , "Went to find a sort of eft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
