Biology:Devonosteus

From HandWiki

Devonosteus is an extinct genus of prehistoric marine lobe-finned fish known from the Late Devonian.[1] It contains a single species, D. proteus from the late Frasnian of Wildungen, Germany.[2][3] It has sometimes been considered a lungfish of the family Holodontidae, but this remains uncertain as the original specimen may be lost.[4][5] Alternatively, it may be a tristichopterid, a type of basal tetrapodomorph.[6]
