Marsupials, as far as we can tell, originated in N. America..but they didn't ride to australia on the back of any continental shift. Just fun info. We're not actually sure how they got to OZ...but however they did it, it must have been pretty goddamned amazing for a bunch of rats with a skin problem.
Anyway, finding new species is one thing.,.and we do it all the time, but species are very nearly the bottom rung of a common lineage, so I;m not sure why you would think that had a modifying effect on notions of common descent?
At the end of the day, we're pretty sure that all life is related for the exact same reasons that we can point to a baby daddy on springer. Doubting common descent is necessarily claiming that paternity tests don't work. You ready to go out on that limb for Jesus, John?
