homininn.adj.

Brit.

/ˈhɒmᵻnɪn/, U.S.

/ˈhɑməˌnɪn/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Hominini.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Hominini, tribe name (E. Delson & P. Andrews in Phylogeny of the Primates (1975) 441) < classical Latin homin- , homō (see homo n.¹) + -īnī , plural of -īnus -ine suffix¹, after scientific Latin Homo , genus name. Compare earlier hominine n., hominid n.

Palaeontology.

A. n.

A primate of the tribe Hominini, comprising those species regarded as human, directly ancestral to humans, or very closely related to humans.Some authors regard the tribe Hominini as including only the genus Homo and the Australopithecines, thus making hominin equivalent to hominid n. 1. Others define the tribe so as to include the chimpanzees, and sometimes also the gorillas.

1989 C. P. Groves Theory Primate & Human Evol. iv. 192 A mandibular fragment..from Lothagam..is the earliest fossil considered to be a hominin (i.e. a member of the Hominini).

1993 Ann. Rev. Ecol. & Systematics 24 157 That estimate fits well with molecular clock estimates of 7–8 MYA for the Gorilla–hominin split and 5–7 MYA for the Homo–Pan split.

2009 J. A. Coyne Why Evol. is True viii. 226 One population of earlier hominins may have survived the worldwide extinction of H. erectus.

B. adj.

Of or relating to hominins; belonging to the tribe Hominini.

1989 C. P. Groves Theory Primate & Human Evol. vi. 193 The hominin fossil is only a little below the basalt.

1999 Nature 15 July 219/2 There is relatively little hominin fossil evidence from between 3 and 2 Myr ago.

2004 Daily Tel. 28 Oct. 4/7 Almost certainly similar endemic hominin species will turn up in other parts of south-east Asia, the Wallacean Islands..being prime candidates.
