Connect the visual in the top left to the other visuals. While the top left visual is unique, the list of species that connect to it is not limited to the ones shown.Answer: The top left is Van Gogh's depiction of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. The species are Takahe, Mahogany glider, Wollemi pine and the Coelacanth. The fossil records for these animals disappeared for long periods of time before reappearing again leading biologists to name these the Lazarus taxon in parallel to the biblical story. Manix, an anon and Iam got it. Well done.
