Difference between Polypterus and Tetrapod

Polypterus vs. Tetrapod

Polypterus is a genus of freshwater fish in the bichir family (Polypteridae) of order Polypteriformes. The superclass Tetrapoda (from Greek: τετρα- "four" and πούς "foot") contains the four-limbed vertebrates known as tetrapods; it includes living and extinct amphibians, reptiles (including dinosaurs, and its subgroup birds) and mammals (including primates, and all hominid subgroups including humans), as well as earlier extinct groups.

Similarities between Polypterus and Tetrapod

Polypterus and Tetrapod have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Actinopterygii, Alfred Romer, Evolution, Sarcopterygii, Spiracle, Tetrapod.

Actinopterygii

Actinopterygii, or the ray-finned fishes, constitute a class or subclass of the bony fishes.

Alfred Romer

Alfred Sherwood Romer (December 28, 1894 – November 5, 1973) was an American paleontologist and biologist and a specialist in vertebrate evolution.

Evolution

Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.

Sarcopterygii

The Sarcopterygii or lobe-finned fish (from Greek σαρξ sarx, flesh, and πτερυξ pteryx, fin) – sometimes considered synonymous with Crossopterygii ("fringe-finned fish", from Greek κροσσός krossos, fringe) – constitute a clade (traditionally a class or subclass) of the bony fish, though a strict cladistic view includes the terrestrial vertebrates.

Spiracle

Spiracles are openings on the surface of some animals, which usually lead to respiratory systems.
