Heterochronic evolution explains novel body shape in a Triassic coelacanth from Switzerland
Abstract A bizarre latimeriid coelacanth fish from the Middle Triassic of Switzerland shows skeletal features deviating from the uniform anatomy of coelacanths. The new form is closely related to a modern-looking coelacanth found in the same locality and differences between both are attributed to he...
