Homo habilis displayed similarities with australopiths through its elongated arms, brain size, and sexual dimorphism.
One similarity between Homo habilis and the australopiths is that Homo habilis exhibited elongated arms similar to the majority of the australopiths, potentially indicating continued reliance on an arboreal environment.
Despite having a somewhat larger brain size than the australopithecines, Homo habilis showed a mix of primitive and derived traits, including human-like teeth and dental features, making classification into the Homo genus contentious.
Homo habilis displayed a high degree of sexual dimorphism, with characteristics such as gracile skull, face, and dentition compared to australopiths, further complicating its taxonomical categorization.
