Diversité taxonomique des Hominidés fossiles en Asie : de nouvelles méthodes pour une vieille question by Stéphane Bouée, Florent Détroit

“…This last distance was similar to the one between fossil H. sapiens and H. erectus. Distances between modern and fossil H. sapiens and between subgroups of actual species were similar and less than the preceding ones.We finally concluded that the fossils belong to two different taxa. …”

Results from an Australopithecus africanus dental enamel fragment confirm the potential of palaeoproteomics for South African Plio-Pleistocene fossil sites by Palesa P. Madupe, Fazeelah Munir, Marc Dickinson, Alberto J. Taurozzi, Meaghan Mackie, Mirriam Tawane, Catherine Mollereau, Nomawethu Hlazo, Kirsty Penkman, Lauren Schroeder, Clément Zanolli, Jesper V. Olsen, Rebecca R. Ackermann, Enrico Cappellini

“… The southern African Late Pliocene to Early Pleistocene hominin record is abundant and exhibits a high taxonomic diversity with three genera represented: Australopithecus, Paranthropus and Homo. Hominin fossil diversity and variation are often contextualised within other fossil assemblages or modern/extant counterparts. …”
