- 南方古猿源泉种是一个建议中的南方古猿种，根据其化石遗骇，可追溯至大约178万到195万年前的更新世。南方古猿源泉种的特色是：他同时具有原始人及现代人的特征，被认为更接近今日的人种。 南方古猿源泉种这个新的人种是基于两个在2008年于南非马拉帕化石地点发现的人类残骸化石。这两个残骇分别属于一位男性青少年，另一个是成年女性，二人关系未明。截至报导发表日期，二人的残骸合共找到了约130块残片。残骸是由南非古人类学家李伯杰和他的同事于2008年发现，并分别于两份刊载于《科学》杂志的文章里纪述这次发现。在确定发现了新物种后，他们把这两具残骸的种属命名为Australopithecus sediba。“sediba”是索托语“天然泉水”或“水井”的意思。History of investigations
