Citation of this still happening with context of their presentation.

Just a short search showed me that Ken Miller and Joe Levine were still using it in their textbooks prior to 1998. I'd be willing to wager an adult beverage that there are kids in this country still using on of the 4 older editions.

And why the heck did it take 5 editions for Miller and Levine to recognize that Haeckel's embryos were fudged in the first place?

Explaination of what the "fairy-tale story" involved is please.

Textbook writers Miller and Levine backpedal on the famous peppered moth experiments. Apparently they've decided that the experiments were fake but mostly accurate.

"Although neither of these drawings are identical to his, they are based on the work of Ernst Haeckel (portrait at left), a 19th century German Biologist who was a pioneer in the study of embryonic development."

So, they DIDN'T use Haeckel's drawings.
