Australopithecus (verbum compositum: australis + pithecus 'simius') est genus hominidarum quae in Africa vivebant et antecessor generis Hominum, itaque Hominum sapientium, esse putatur. Australopithecus duobus pedibus ambulabat, sed etiam bracchia longiora quam bracchia Hominum sapientium habebat, quibus fortasse utebatur ut arbores scanderet. Fructus nucesque comedebat.[1]
