Why Is Farish Jenkins Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Farish Alston Jenkins was a professor at Harvard University who studied and taught paleontology. His discoveries included a transitional creature with characteristics of both fish and land animals — Tiktaalik roseae —and one of the earliest known frogs, Prosalirus bitis.
