Homininae
Homininae is a subfamily of
Hominidae that includes the tribes
Hominini and
Gorillini, which together encompass
humans and some extinct relatives,
chimpanzees and
bonobos, as well as
gorillas. It comprises all
hominids that arose after orangutans (subfamily
Ponginae) split from the line of great apes. The Homininae
cladogram has three main branches, which lead to gorillas (through the tribe Gorillini), and to humans and chimpanzees via the tribe Hominini and subtribes Hominina and Panina, (see the evolutionary tree below). There are several living species of chimpanzees and gorillas, but only one extant human species. Traces of hypothetical
Homo species, including
Homo floresiensis and
Homo denisova, have been found with dates as recent as 12,000 years ago. Organisms in this class are described as
hominine or
hominines (not to be confused with the terms
hominins or
hominini).
