For Creationists who deny that examples of transitional fossils exist: What would you consider to be the characteristics of a transitional species? [Spirituality & Religion]

At least hypothetically speaking, what would a transitional from need to show in order to be considered a transitional form?

FYI, the scientific understanding of a transitional form is that the organism is a mosaic, i.e. that it shows features belonging to the ancestral group alongside features which belong to the descendant group.
Many such fossils are known to science.

Yes, lungfish are interesting examples of evolution indeed and give a cool idea of how life might have made the transition from water to land.
