So don't jump the gun claiming victory. Victory? What victory? Fish and amphibians are genetically linked. It's nice to see the predicted pieces of the puzzle falling into place. But if this fossil isn't any good, another will turn up eventually.

Fish and amphibians are genetically linked. There used to be a good site comparing the head bones of Eusthenopteron (lobe-finned fish) and Acanthostega (very early amphibian). Alas, it's gone now. Anyway, aside from genetic similarities, early amphibians had bone-for-bone practically the same heads as their immediate fish ancestors.
