Australopithecus Sediba Paved the Way for Homo Species, New Studies Suggest

Researchers have revealed new details about the brain, pelvis, hands and feet of Australopithecus sediba, a primitive hominin that existed around the same time early Homo species first began to appear on Earth. The new Au. sediba findings make it clear that this ancient relative displayed both primitive characteristics as well as more modern, human-like traits. And due to this "mosaic" nature of the hominin's features, researchers are now suggesting that Au. sediba is the best candidate for an ancestor to the Homo genus.

sorry to be an ocd geek but it should be A. Sediba not Au. Sediba, and should really either be underlined or in italics.
