* Eusthenopteron has also been widely featured in textbooks as a ' missing link ' between fish and tetrapods.

* Eusthenopteron was featured in the second episode of Animal Armageddon.

Nouvelle's graphic seal is a world globe overlaid by Eusthenopteron foordi, whose fossil discovery brought worldwide fame to the Miguasha National Park, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site within the municipality.

Eusthenopteron was first described by J. F. Whiteaves in 1881, as part of a large collection of fishes from Miguasha, Quebec.

Devonian fishes, including an early shark Cladoselache, Eusthenopteron and other lobe-finned fish es, and the placoderm Bothriolepis, 1905.

Eusthenopteron, like other tetrapodomorph fishes, had internal nostrils, ( or a choana ) which are found only in land animals and sarcopterygians.

Like other basal sarcopterygians, Eusthenopteron possessed a two-part cranium, which hinged at mid-length along an intracranial joint.

It had four sturdy limbs, a neck, a tail with fins and a skull very similar to the lobe-finned fish, Eusthenopteron.

One of the earliest known vertebrates to have a femur is the Eusthenopteron, a prehistoric lobe-finned fish from the Late Devonian period.

Anders Erik Vilhelm Jarvik ( 30 November 1907 – January 11, 1998 ) was a Swedish palaeozoologist who worked extensively on the sarcopterygian ( or lobe-finned ) fish Eusthenopteron.

Jarvik did very detailed studies of the fossil fish Eusthenopteron

The Late Devonian was home to many species of Sarcopterygii | lobe-finned fish like Eusthenopteron, Panderichthys, Tiktaalik and the first tetrapod s, such as Acanthostega whose forelimbs had eight digits, and Ichthyostega which had seven.

Early tetrapods like Ichthyostega and Acanthostega differed from animals like Crossopterygians ( for instance Eusthenopteron or Panderichthys ) in their increased adaptations for life on land.

In particular, he conducted detailed anatomical studies of the cranium of Eusthenopteron foordi using a serial-section technique introduced by William Johnson Sollas and applied to fossil fishes by Erik Stensiö.

However, his anatomical studies of Eusthenopteron foordi laid the foundations for modern studies of the transition from fishes to tetrapods.

Eusthenopteron is a genus of prehistoric sarcopterygian ( often called lobe-finned fishes ) which has attained an iconic status from its close relationships to tetrapods.

The genus Eusthenopteron is known from several species that lived during the Late Devonian period, about 385 million years ago.

Some 2, 000 Eusthenopteron specimens have been collected from Miguasha, one of which was the object of intensely detailed study and several papers from the 1940s to the 1990s by paleoichthyologist Erik Jarvik.

Anatomically, Eusthenopteron shares many unique features in common with the earliest known tetrapods.

Eusthenopteron differs significantly from some later Carboniferous tetrapods in the apparent absence of a recognized larval stage and a definitive metamorphosis.

The Ramirez brothers were also along.

Wet also were the marine's fatigues and the face had an oily film.

Capable of enduring friendships, they were also stout controversialists, who could write with a drop of vitriol on their pens.

We can also argue that the three brothers Karamazov and Smerdyakov were the external representatives of an internal conflict within one man, Dostoevsky, a conflict having to do with father-murder and the wish to possess the father's woman.

The discoid shapes of sun and moon were also felt to indicate the shape of celestial things.

Both these youths, who greatly admired Henrietta, were somewhat younger than she, as were also the neighboring Friedenwald boys, who were then studying medicine ; ;

A good deal of English was spoken on the beach, most educated Greeks learn it in childhood, and there were also American wives and children of our overseas servicemen.

Besides being political allies, they were also friends.

as Pike proved himself adept in the political arena, he also became a social lion in the village of Little Rock, where he served as a symbol of the culture that the ladies of the town were striving so eagerly to cultivate.

The English, relying on a prejudiced arbiter and confronted with superior diplomatic skill, were also hampered in their negotiations by the events that were taking place at home.

The younger men, Vere, and Pembroke, who was also Edward's cousin and whose Lusignan blood gave him the swarthy complexion that caused Edward of Carnarvon's irreverent friend, Piers Gaveston, to nickname him `` Joseph the Jew '', were relatively new to the game of diplomacy, but Pontissara had been on missions to Rome before, and Hotham, a man of great learning, `` jocund in speech, agreeable to meet, of honest religion, and pleasing in the eyes of all '', and an archbishop to boot, was as reliable and experienced as Othon himself.

He also ascertained that many officers were indifferent to the problem, including Commanding General Frederick Funston who gave Fosdick the nickname of `` Reverend ''.

A. M. Wergeland called the Adams method literally antihistorical, while Clive Day maintained that the assumptions were not confined to theories alone but were also applicable to straight factual evidence.

we were also literary ; ;

Granted that the Tammany name and the Tammany tiger often were regarded as badges of political shame, the sachems of the Hall also have a few good marks to their credit.

He and other Soviet leaders responsible for the document were proud of having brought forward some new formulas, such as the early replacement of the dictatorship of the proletariat by an `` All People's State '', and also of having laid down the lines for a much greater `` democratization '' of the whole hierarchy of Soviets, starting with the Supreme Soviet itself.

And if the foreigners fighting in the Katanga Army are mercenaries then Lafayette and Von Steuben were mercenaries too, as were also the members of the Lafayette Escadrille in the early part of World War 1, and of Chennault's Flying Tigers in the early days of World War 2.

There were also a couple in Canada, and several in England.

It is also significant that neither this report nor the hearing officer's notes were furnished to the appeal board.

But as you can also see, it's not a painful exercise at all, because Henri De Courcy -- the `` happy '' bodybuilder -- looks as though he were having the time of his life!!
