Ernst Haeckel
Ernst Haeckel (February 16, 1834 – August 9, 1919), was a
German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor and artist who
discovered, described and named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical
tree relating all life forms. Haeckel promoted and popularized Charles Darwin's
work in Germany and developed the controversial recapitulation theory (ontogeny
recapitulates phylogeny) claiming that an individual organism's biological
development, or ontogeny, parallels and summarizes its species' evolutionary
development, or phylogeny.
