  • Hi

    Please try and folow instructions -Headers should be in CAPITALS (see ealier instructions) - again sentences start with CAPS as well as names - it is important to get your punctuation correct and check your spelling. An incomplete sentence exists.

    You have implied that the Coelacanth is extinct, rather say that it was thought to have been extinct since the Devonian(?) (Please check this fact?). Then discuss its re-discovery and how its anatomy and physiology comapares with modern fish. What is the current conservation staus of this species and where is it thought to occur now?
