The article discusses the discovery by paleontologist Martin Brazeau regarding a missing link in the fossil fish record. Acanthodian, which is a fossilized fish that resembles bony fishes such as eels and salmon and cartilaginous fish such as sharks, and the family it belongs to has been a mystery to paleontologists. Topics include how Brazeau was able to link acanthodian fishes to present day species and a brief overview of the species history.
