Solution

The correct option is D Archaeopteryx
Archaeopteryx is the link between reptiles and birds that is no longer living hence missing. Other animals are either not a link or not missing. Pheretima is common earthworm and Limulus is crab; both not a link. The Peripatus is a link between arthropods and annelids but is living, hence, not missing.
So, the correct answer is 'Archeopteryx'
