connecting link is an organism having characteristics of two different group of organisms e.g., duck billed platypus ( scientific name Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is a connecting link between reptiles and mammals i.e, it has mammary glands to feed its young ones like other mammals e.g human being , cow ,buffalo etc., and it lays hard shelled egg with large amount of yolk like reptiles , so duck billed platypus is a connecting link between two evolutionary groups viz., reptiles and mammals .
other examples :- protopterus (Lung fish) is a connecting link between fishes and amphibians.
Chimera ( Rabbit fish) connecting link cartilaginous fishes and bony fishes.
