Romanes's 1892 copy of Ernst Haeckel's controversial embryo drawings ( this version of the figure is often attributed incorrectly to Haeckel ).

Under the influence of his teacher Haeckel, Driesch had tested the mechanistic embryological theories of another of Haeckel's students, Wilhelm Roux.

Ernst Haeckel | Haeckel's Paleontological Tree of Vertebrates ( c. 1879 ).</ br > The evolutionary history of species has been described as a " phylogenetic tree | tree ", with many branches arising from a single trunk.

From a more modern perspective, Haeckel's drawings were the beginnings of the field of evolutionary developmental biology ( evo-devo ).

Although Charles Darwin accepted Haeckel's support for natural selection, he was tentative in using Haeckel's ideas in his writings ; with regard to embryology, Darwin relied far more on von Baer's work.

Nevertheless, new interest in evolution in and around 1977 inspired developmental biologists to look more closely at Haeckel's illustrations.

Haeckel's recapitulation theory claims that the development of advanced species passes through stages represented by adult organisms of more primitive species.

Ernst Haeckel's Darwinismus was even more universal, incorporating life, mind, society, politics and knowledge itself, though Darwin had struggled with reading his book and his efforts to get it translated were thwarted as the book proved too controversial.

While Haeckel's tree is somewhat outdated, it illustrates clearly the principles that more complex modern reconstructions can obscure.

Some mark Haeckel's definition as the beginning ; others say it was Eugenius Warming with the writing of Oecology of Plants: An Introduction to the Study of Plant Communities ( 1895 ), or Carl Linnaeus ' principles on the economy of nature that matured in the early 18th century.

Haeckel's political beliefs were influenced by his affinity for the German Romantic movement coupled with his acceptance of a form of Lamarckism.

Even though Haeckel's program in comparative embryology virtually collapsed after the First World War, his embryo drawings have often been reproduced and redrawn with increased precision and accuracy in works that have kept the study of comparative embryology alive.

Both the notion of atavism, and Haeckel's recapitulation theory, are saturated with notions of evolution as progress, as a march towards greater complexity and superior ability.

Although Haeckel's ideas are important to the history of evolutionary theory, and he was a competent invertebrate anatomist most famous for his work on radiolaria, many speculative concepts that he championed are now considered incorrect.

( Richard and Oskar Hertwig were two of Haeckel's many important students.

Java Man originally carried Haeckel's Pithecanthropus label, though they were later reclassified as Homo erectus.

Haeckel's work and the ensuing controversy linked the fields of developmental biology and comparative anatomy into comparative embryology.

This is partly because Haeckel's drawings were very inaccurate.

The exactness of Ernst Haeckel's drawings of embryos has caused much controversy among Intelligent Design proponents recently and Haeckel's intellectual opponents in the past.

In relation to developmental timing, von Baer's scheme of development differs from Haeckel's scheme.

But even Richardson admitted in Science Magazine in 1997 that his team's investigation of Haeckel's drawings were showing them to be " one of the most famous fakes in biology.

One of Haeckel's earliest proponents was Carl Gegenbaur at the University of Jena ( 1865 – 1873 ), during which both men were absorbing the impact of Darwin's theory.

The philologist and anthropologist, Friedrich Müller, used Haeckel's concepts as a source for his ethnological research, involving the systematic comparison of the folklore, beliefs and practices of different societies.

Müller's work relies specifically on theoretical assumptions that are very similar to Haeckel's and reflects the German practice to maintain strong connections between empirical research and the philosophical framework of science.

Although Müller did not specifically have an influence in advocating Haeckel's embryo drawings, both shared a common understanding of development from lower to higher forms, for Müller specifically saw humans as the last link in an endless chain of evolutionary development.

Modern acceptance of Haeckel's Biogenetic Law, despite current rejection of Haeckelian views, finds support in the certain degree of parallelism between ontogeny and phylogeny.

According to M. S. Fischer, reconsideration of the Biogenetic Law is possible as a result of two fundamental innovations in biology since Haeckel's time: cladistics and developmental genetics.

In defense of Haeckel's embryo drawings, the principal argument is that of " schematisation.

" Haeckel's drawings were not intended to be technical and scientific depictions, but rather schematic drawings and reconstructions for a specifically lay audience.
