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

It is a bit old, but I should point out The Talk.Origins Archive does have some information on the fish to amphibian transition for those willing to do some work:

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

<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_2089000/2089873.stm" target="_blank">Click here</a>

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

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