Variation and the evolutionary drivers of diversity in the genus Paranthropus [PDF]

, 2019
Craniodental robusticity in Paranthropus has led many researchers to posit that all the species in this genus share a common adaptation to a diet of hard foods.

The development of chemical approaches to fossil hominin ecology in South Africa

South African Journal of Science
When Dart recognised the fossilised skull of the Taung Child as a hominin ancestor, he also observed that its “sere environment” produced few foods preferred by African apes in equatorial forests.

Human-like hip joint loading in Australopithecus africanus and Paranthropus robustus. [PDF]

, 2018
Adaptations indicative of habitual bipedalism are present in the earliest recognized hominins. However, debate persists about various aspects of bipedal locomotor behavior in fossil hominins, including the nature of gait kinematics, locomotor variability

Protostylid expression at the enamel-dentine junction and enamel surface of mandibular molars of Paranthropus robustus and Australopithecus africanus

, 2009
Distinctive expressions and incidences of discrete dental traits at the outer enamel surface (OES) contribute to the diagnoses of many early hominin taxa.

Three-dimensional molar enamel distribution and thickness in Australopithecus and Paranthropus

, 2008
Thick molar enamel is among the few diagnostic characters of hominins which are measurable in fossil specimens. Despite a long history of study and characterization of Paranthropus molars as relatively ‘hyper-thick’, only a few tooth fragments and ...
