What is not agreed is how close either of the extant groups of lobe-finned fish, lungfish or coelacanths, is to the actual ancestor of the tetrapods. The soft anatomy of living lungfish shares many similarities with that of living amphibians.

But neither groups are likely to have given rise directly to the amphibians; the LUNGFISH do not have a suitable fin structure, and the COELACANTHS are a marine group and do not have a lung.
