Fossil discovery fills in missing information about modern fish evolution
After an asteroid slammed into Earth 66 million years ago, there is very little evidence of fish in the fossil record. Now, a research team including University of Michigan graduate student Sanaa El-Sayed has discovered the earliest known examples of six modern fish groups that still swim in Earth's seas today.
