Lungfish are not amniotes; they belong to a group called dipnoi, which are a type of fish. Amniotes are vertebrates that possess an amniotic egg, a characteristic that includes reptiles, birds, and mammals. Lungfish have adaptations for breathing air and can survive in low-oxygen environments, but they do not have the amniotic structure associated with amniotes. Therefore, while lungfish are an interesting evolutionary link, they do not fit the classification of amniotes.
