Not a full answer but early branches of intelligent humanoids re-converged to a single species. Such as early humans and Neanderthals. This is a natural phenomenon that occurs when a species has a desire to mate with a diverse genetic profile to create a more resilient offspring. If this process creates a less than desirable offspring natural selection will cause a shrinking population of those with undesirable traits.
