High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Living fossil is an informal term for any living species of organism which appears to be the same as a species otherwise only known from fossils and which has no close living relatives. These species have all survived major extinction events, and generally retain low taxonomic diversities. A species which successfully radiates has become too successful to be considered a "living fossil". However, the term is frequently misinterpreted. There is a subtle difference between a "living fossil" and a "Lazarus taxon".
