What type of lobe finned fish is thought to be extinct?
Lobe-finned fish were prehistoric fish from the order of Crossopterygii. These type of fish were discovered in fossils with no known live specimen at the time of the discovery. However in 1938 a fish species called Coelacanth, which was thought to have been extinct, was discovered off the Southern coast of Africa. More recently, in 1997 and again in 1998, a separate breed of Coelacanth, named Indonesian Coelcanth (Latimeria Menadoensis), were discovered living in the oceans off of Indonesia. The Indonesian Coelcanth (Latimeria Menadoensis) is officially listed as "threatened", not extinct. All species of lobe-finned fish are believed to be exctinct except for the Coelacanth and Sulawesi Coelacanth.
