Acanthrostega is surely one of the best transional fossils yet found. It all but has a bus ticket in it's pocket.

There is a MUCH better article on the new fossil (or at least newly examined) at the BBC.

BBC usually does do a better job on this sort of thing than its American oposite numbers.

And here’s from Nature, where the thing was originally published.

I know our sometime Infidel Per Ahlberg has worked with Jenny Clack. If you’re around, anything to add, Per?
