Cutaneous respiration, or cutaneous gas exchange as it is sometimes called, is a process of respiration in which the exchange of gases takes place through the skin or the outer integument. Here no gills or lungs are present. A common example of this process is the respiratory system of a common frog.

Respiration Through Skin:
There some organisms that respire through their body surface for example, Amoeba, Euglena and Paramecium. They take oxygen directly from the surroundings. Oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse in and out through the outer cell membrane or the body surface. In earthworm and leech, the skin is moist and helps in the exchange of gases. Gaseous exchange through skin is also known as cutaneous respiration.
