Paranthropus boisei: Fifty years of evidence and analysis [PDF]
Paranthropus boisei is a hominin taxon with a distinctive cranial and dental morphology. Its hypodigm has been recovered from sites with good stratigraphic and chronological control, and for some morphological regions, such as the mandible and the mandibular dentition, the samples are not only relatively well dated, but they are, by paleontological ...

Paranthropus through the looking glass. [PDF]
Most research and public interest in human origins focuses on taxa that are likely to be our ancestors. There must have been genetic continuity between modern humans and the common ancestor we share with chimpanzees and bonobos, and we want to know what each link in this chain looked like and how it behaved.

Contracting eastern African C4 grasslands during the extinction of Paranthropus boisei [PDF]
The extinction of the Paranthropus boisei estimated to just before 1 Ma occurred when C4 grasslands dominated landscapes of the Eastern African Rift System (EARS). P.

Complex and diverse patterns of neurocranial development in Australopithecus, Paranthropus and Homo [PDF]
Even though poorly understood, early ontogeny may have influenced the distinct morphologies and behaviors of Homo sapiens, fossil hominins and extant African apes.

Recent excavations in Level 4 at BK (Bed II, Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania) have yielded nine hominin teeth, a distal humerus fragment, a proximal radius with much of its shaft, a femur shaft, and a tibia shaft fragment (cataloged collectively as OH 80). Those

Hominin fossils from Kromdraai and Drimolen inform Paranthropus robustus craniofacial ontogeny. [PDF]
Ontogeny provides critical information about the evolutionary history of early hominin adult morphology. We describe fossils from the southern African sites of Kromdraai and Drimolen that provide insights into early craniofacial development in the Pleistocene robust australopith Paranthropus robustus .

New fossils from Kromdraai and Drimolen, South Africa, and their distinctiveness among Paranthropus robustus [PDF]
Most fossil hominin species are sampled with spatial, temporal or anatomical biases that can hinder assessments of their paleodiversity, and may not yield genuine evolutionary signals.

Accessory cusp expression at the enamel-dentine junction of hominin mandibular molars [PDF]
Studies of hominin dental morphology frequently consider accessory cusps on the lower molars, in particular those on the distal margin of the tooth (C6 or distal accessory cusp) and the lingual margin of the tooth (C7 or lingual accessory cusp). They are
