'''Coelacanth''' is an order of fish related to lungfishes. These are lobe-finned fish and adult females are larger in size than males. The largest recorded specimen of Coelacanth was 178 centimeters in length and weighed 98 kilograms. It is considered to be a critically endangered species and an estimated 1,000 fishes are alive today.<ref name=BBCFFHW>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/1331848.stm 'Fossil fish' hits the web] ''BBC News''</ref>
