Many scientists think the robust australopiths' similar skull shape is homoplasious—that is, it separately developed in two or more taxa—and as a result, they automatically classify them as Australopithecus.

A group of fossil hominins known as the "robust" australopiths lived in East and southern Africa between around 2.5 and 1.4 million years ago (Ma). Although there is still a great deal of debate over their correct classification, they are referred to as members of the genus Paranthropus throughout this article.
