Lungfish
Various species (e.g., Neoceratodus forsteri)
Differenze chiave: While lungfish also possess lobe-like fins, their body shape, scale structure, and overall morphology are distinctly different. Lungfish are freshwater inhabitants and have functional lungs, which coelacanths lack. Coelacanths have a unique tripartite tail and intracranial joint not found in lungfish.
