Livoniana
''Livoniana'' is a genus of prehistoric lobe-finned fish which lived during the Devonian period (Givetian - Frasnian stages, about 374 - 391 million years ago).〔Ahlberg, P.E., E. Luksevics and E. Mark-Kurik. 2000. "A near-tetrapod from the Baltic Middle Devonian". ''Paleontology'' 43(3): 533-548.〕 This species is a transitional form between fish and the earliest tetrapods, like ''Tiktaalik'', ''Ichthyostega'' and ''Acanthostega''. Before ''Livoniana'' there was ''Elginerpeton'' and ''Obruchevichthys''. Four legs developed in water, not on land, to better escape waterliving predatory creatures like ''Hyneria''. There were very lush forests, and particularly swamps, where four limbs became very useful to avoid predators. 〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/horizon/2000/missinglink_transcript.shtml〕 ==References==
