<skos:note xml:lang="en">Species of extinct bipedal homonin whose remains were found in the Transvaal region of South Africa; it lived 3.3 to 2.5 million years ago. Characterized by arms slightly longer than the legs, human-like cranial features combined with more primitive features including ape-like curved fingers for tree climbing. This species was the first of the australopiths to be described; Raymond Dart named the genus and species in 1925 after his discovery of the famous Taung child.</skos:note>
