Abstract: Abstract G. Suwa et al.1 and E. Delson's News and Views2 address one of the most contentious issues in palaeoanthropology, that of the boundaries (if any) between hominid species, in the context of an exciting new fossil from Konso in Ethiopia. Suwa et al. attribute this specimen to Australopithecus boisei, but note that it has some similarities to the South African robust australopithecines first described by Robert Broom more than 50 years ago.
