The more ] ]s of the ] tribe are placed in the '''Hominina''' subtribe. They are characterized by the evolution of an increasingly erect ] locomotion. The only ] species is '']''. Fossil records indicate this subtribe branched from the common ancestor with the ] lineage about 3 to 5 million years ago.

==Taxonomy==
Current evidence{{Fact|date=March 2008}} suggests that, about 2.6 million years ago, ''Australopithecus'' began to diverge into two paths, on the one hand to ''Paranthropus'', more robust, specialized in an ] diet that required a stronger jaw and molars and powerful facial muscles that required a cranial crest, much like a modern ] has, to unite them. The other track led to ''Homo'' with a relatively larger brain, more delicate teeth and jaw. Both genera existed at the same time for about a million and a half years.

This subtribe is usually considered to include '']'', '']'', '']'', '']'', '']'', '']'', and '']''. However, the exact makeup is still under debate, as some scientists struggle to determine the order of descent in ].

==Description==
Key features of this group involve various adaptations for living predominantly on the ground rather than on the trees. In particular, it is vertical standing, moving on two legs and the skull placed on top of the vertebral column. The feet are ] unlike the rest of primates, since the first toe is built robustly and aligned with the other four. The hands have a developed opposable thumb and are quite adept at manipulating objects.
