User:Johntobey/Human evolutionary pedigree
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This table shows the human evolutionary pedigree, excluding extinct groups. It attempts to list all extant sister taxa of clades that contain humans. As of July 2013, much of this information is subject to debate and ongoing research, and the linked articles often contradict each other.
