أحفورة حية

أسماك السيلاكانث يعتقد أنها انقرضت منذ 65 مليون سنة مضت، حتى اكتشفت عينة حية من هذه الرتبة عام 1938.

الأحفورة الحية living fossil، هي أنواع (أو سلالات) من العضيات تبدو كما لو أنها هي نفسها من أنواع غير معروفة إلا من الأحفورات وليس لها أقارب أحياء. عايشت هذه الأنواع جميع أحداث الانقراض الجماعي، وتحتفظ عموماً بتنوع تصنيفي منخفض. والنوع الذي يشع بنجاح (مُشكـِّلاً العديد من الأنواع الجديدة بعد عنق زجاجة جيني محتمل) يصبح أنجح من أن يوصف بأنه "أحفورة حية".

التاريخ

تعريفات أخرى

The trapdoor spider has segmented plates on its back, making it the most ancient of all living spiders and the closest relative to the scorpions in the spider family.

أمثلة

Ginkgos have not only existed on this planet for a long time, but also have a long life span, with some having an age of over 2,500 years. Six specimens have even been known to survive the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, 1 to 2 kilometers from ground zero; they still live there today.
