Sumario:The aim of this paper is to embed the Ameghinian phylogenetic method in phase 3 of Tuomi's (1979, 1981) multilevel dynamic model, which refers to the communal deliberation on model-retrodictive simulations for the transformational classification of living beings. A qualitative analysis of exploratory-descriptive scope of Florentino Ameghino's (1884) Phylogeny, structured on the basis of Tuomi's (1979, 1981) and Ginnobili's (2018) reconstruction of the theory of natural selection, was therefore carried out. The most relevant results include: a) the disidentification of the Ameghinian phylogenetic method from the community deliberation on explanatory mechanisms of evolutionary change, b) the identification of the Ameghinian anthropogenic hypothesis on the South American origin of humans as a specification of the Darwinian phylogenetic agenda, and c) the pluralistic juxtaposition of the community deliberation –in its different phases–, based on a pragmatist historiographic reading, as an epistemological novelty applied to the reading of Ameghino's (1884) Phylogeny.
