Re: H. troglodytes
Although interesting, I'm a little puzzled why chimps would be considered for the genus Homo given that the common human-chimp ancestor predated the Australopithecenes. Why not A. troglodyte instead of H. troglodyte?

This is basically why a lot of human paleontologists are against putting chimps into Homo (as H. troglodytes).
​
So what do the chimp paleontologists (like Bobo Leakey) think about it?
​
But seriously, thanks for the reply. It makes more sense now.
