Transitional Forms - Transitional forms or "Missing Links" are fossils that show a change from one species to another.
Currently many Americans feel that the fossil record contains many gaps [1].
Paleontologists typically reject this claim and some work has been done to provide the general public a better understanding of the complete fossil record. One such attempt is that by Kathleen Hunt who created a Transitional Vertebrate Fossil FAQ [2].
The Transitional Vertebrate Fossil FAQ covers two broad categories: PART I has FISHES TO FIRST MAMMALS & BIRDS: [3]
PART 2 has transitions among mammals (starting with primates), including numerous species-to-species transitions, discussion, and references. [4]
