Evolutionists often argue that not only is phylogeny important for understanding paleontology, however, many Evolutionist claims about paleontology have been shown to be false (such as denialism about the [[Great Flood]] for example). Many groups of organisms are now extinct, but the mere presence of their fossils does not show that they all evovled from a common ancestor.  Despite this, Darwinists often fill in the gaps and extrapolate results to fit the preconceived picture they have already agreed upon.

[[Evolution|Evolutionist]] [[Ernst Haeckel]] is well known for his claim that "[[ontogeny]] recapitulates phylogeny," meaning that organisms pass through stages in development that mirror their evolutionary history. He produced fraudlent drawings, such as the one pictured, to support this view. Evolutionary biologists maintain that other evidence supports this conclusion, albeit not as strongly as Haeckel suspected.

Many problems in [[computational biology]] are inspired by work in phylogenetics and systematics, several of which have been shown to be [[NP-complete]]. However, this does not necessarily mean that phylogenetics is true about animals.
