Summary
Haeckel’s genealogical project began in 1866 with his monumental two-volume Generelle Morphologie der Organismen (Haeckel 1866), written partly under the influence of Darwin’s Origin of Species (Darwin 1859), terminating some 30 years later with another equally exhaustive survey – this time in three volumes: Systematische Phylogenie: Entwurf eines natürlichen Systems der Organismen auf Grund ihrer Stammesgeschichte (Haeckel 1894–18961).
