An assessment of the likely impact of strain-related phenotypic plasticity on hominin fossil species identification
It has been proposed that strain-related phenotypic plasticity may be a major confounding factor in attributing hominin fossils to species. The study reported here tested this hypothesis with craniometric data from the great apes and Colobus guereza. We divided the measurements into three groups: me...
