I'd like feedback on this.
We have two groups of lines -- long and short with no intermediary lines. There is "variation" inside of a group, but a short line does not become a long line:
Short:
_
___
__
_____
____
Long:
_______
_________
______
________
But, if I take the above lines and sort them by length, here's what I get:
_
__
___
____
_____
______
_______
________
_________
A cockatoo is intermediate between a larger parrot and a smaller parrot -- as such, a fossilized cockatoo would be an intermediary fossil.
That said, about 99% of species we've found fossils for are no longer living -- including, for example, Neanderthal fossils. So all fossils are intermediary fossils, including our own.
