Prehistoric and modern coelacanths are not even in the same genus, much less species.

Camels and llamas separated some 40 million years ago. They are not of the same genus.

Modern and ancient coelacanths are in the same order, not the same genus. Llamas and camels are in the same order, not the same genus. Humans and chimps are in the same order, not the same genus (though some argue that chimps should be put into genus homo, that is still a minority position). Humans and gorillas are in the same order, not the same genus.

Your point was?
