26 de abr. de 2024 · Australopithecines include the genus Paranthropus (2.3–1.2 mya), which comprises three species of australopiths—collectively called the “robusts” because of their very large cheek teeth set in massive jaws.
Hace 1 día · Their diversity and abundance at Kromdraai offer a glimpse into the diets and behaviours of both large carnivores and our ancient relatives. As prey, these animals shaped the predatory patterns of the region's megafauna and, by extension, influenced the survival strategies of hominins such as Paranthropus robustus and early Homo species .
17 de abr. de 2024 · In an analysis of how biotic interactions regulate hominin evolutionary dynamics, the authors show that speciation is negatively related to species diversity in Australopithecus and Paranthropus...
20 de abr. de 2024 · Paranthropus had a mean cranial volume of 479.4 cm 3, and the range was from 410 (P. boisei) to 530 cm 3 (P. robustus and P. boisei), while for Paranthropus aethiopicus, there were intermediate values.
