Paranthropus boisei is important because it exemplifies the genus Paranthropus, a group of species with extreme features of the skull and teeth not found in other species. Current evidence suggests that the species in this genus eventually went extinct without leaving any descendants; the remains of P. boisei help to explain why this phenomenon ...
