Instead of a tree structure of evolution it is more like a big messy ball of branches and shoots that sometimes grow together from other sides of the tree. Pretty much picture an inbred redneck family tree and how it has lots of places where it doesn't fork or doubles back, but instead of mother marrying son or cousin marrying an uncle it is species interbreeding.
Horizontal Gene Transfer is the culprit here.
