Why do most systematists currently working on eukaryotic relationships consider kingdom protista and the five kingdom system obsolete?
The Kingdom Protista is polyphyletic including members derived from 2 or more ancestral forms not common to all members & thus do not reflect phylogeny.

However, the less inclusive version of the Kingdom Protista is still polyphyletic. Using nucleic acid sequencing, systematics has begun sorting out monophyletic groups.
