Talk:Paranthropus boisei

Paranthropus
If this information is not all currently at Paranthropus, it certainly should be. --Wetman 4 July 2005 09:30 (UTC)

There were many important factors I added such as how Paranthropus boisei had the largest sexual dimorphism and their comparison to modern day Gorillas, you did not have to delete that. --Quena@sympatico.ca 04:24, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

"Males weighed 68 kg (150 lb) and stood 4 feet 3 inches (1.3 m) tall, while females weighed 45 kg (100 lb) and stood 3 feet 5 inches (1.05 m) tall. The average adult males were almost twice the weight and height as the females, giving them the greatest sexual dimorphism recorded of all identified hominins. "

Correct me if I'm wrong, but something's wrong with that math.--NotALizard 11:32, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

This page absolutley needs references to it's discovery and subsequint place as the missing link. It was added to textbooks and a few years later the Leakey's came out saying they had made a mistake. And then the animal was placed back where it actually belonged as a non-human, low land vegetarian primate. That information would be essential, one would think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.118.38.126 (talk) 05:13, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

chart colours ...
Can someone make the color for the Austro' timeline a darker yellow? It's so light it is hard to see on a white background. Thanks. 104.169.18.0 (talk) 22:42, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

species name
Needs a reference about the change away from the Leaky designation, and why the most-recent rules about the original naming convention does not apply? (aka Brontosaurus-Apatosaurus) 104.169.18.0 (talk) 22:45, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
