-One aspect I find very interesting is: how come the Paranthropus aethiopicus/robustus/boisei evolved to represent a sagittal crest? -Also: Being the only lineages who show this particular caracteristic how did they evolve to prenet this crest only in males? (sexual dismorphism)

-What is your hypothesis about Austrolopithecus and Paranthropus coexistance? -Do you think these sympatric species lived up and close to each other or were always falling back due to their diets?
