Pulmonary arteries in coelacanths shed light on the vasculature evolution of air-breathing organs in vertebrates
Abstract To date, the presence of pulmonary organs in the fossil record is extremely rare. Among extant vertebrates, lungs are described in actinopterygian polypterids and in all sarcopterygians, including coelacanths and lungfish. However, vasculature of pulmonary arteries has never been accurately...
