These arguments may be settled as more A. sediba skeletons emerge.
这些争论可能只有等更多的sediba骸骨被发现才会平息。
According to Berger, however, A. sediba may have older roots than they think.
然而，据伯格尔称，sediba可能具有比他们认为的更古老的起源。
"Sediba casts everything called Homo before erectus into question, " says de Ruiter.
“源泉种使直立人出现之前的所有被称为人属的物种遭到质疑，”德·鲁伊特说。
It's too soon to know whether A. sediba is a direct human ancestor, or just looks like one.
现在说sediba是人类直接的祖先，或只是像人类，还为时过早。
The sediba fossils, by contrast, have some of the most complete features in the early human record.
相比较而言，源泉种化石具有部分早期人类最完整的特征。
However, taxonomical debates may ultimately prove less important than the questions A. sediba provokes.
然而，分类学上的争论可能最终被证明并没有sediba引发的问题重要。
This week, however, a range of new research into sediba, again led by Dr Berger, has been published in Science.
然而本周，李·伯格尔博士领导的一系列关于sediba的最新研究成果在《科学》杂志上发表。
This week, bones from Australopithecus Sediba are unveiled at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg.
本周，南方古猿人的骨骼在约翰尼斯堡金山大学公布于众。
As a member of the genus Australopithecus, sediba is less manlike than the as-yet-unnamed Siberian discovery, which was a member of the genus Homo.
作为南方古猿的一个属，sediba要比尚未命名的西伯利亚的发现更不像人。西伯利亚的发现属于人属。
Dr Berger posits that sediba may have evolved directly into Homo erectus, leaving habilis as an evolutionary sideline, and not even part of the genus Homo.
李·伯格尔博士推断南方古猿sediba可能直接进化成了直立人，这使“能人”成为进化的旁支，甚至不是人属的一部分。
The hands, feet and pelvis of sediba indicate that it both climbed trees and walked upright, though with a different gait from that of humans or chimpanzees.
从源泉种的手、脚和骨盆来看，源泉种既能爬树又能直立行走，但步态与人类或是猩猩有点不一样。
If two-million-year-old A. sediba is indeed the true ancestor of Homo, how could it give rise to those even older fossils assigned to Homo in Bill Kimbel's shoe box?
如果距今200万年的南方古猿源泉种确实是人属的真正祖先，它怎么可能繁衍出比尔·吉姆贝尔（威廉·吉姆贝尔？） 鞋盒子中距今历史更长的化石人属？
All of which makes sediba more similar to modern humans than are other australopithecines—and more similar, even, than Homo habilis, until now seen as one of the earliest humans.
所有这些都让南方古猿sediba比其它灵长类更象现代人——甚至比至今被认为是最早人类之一的“能人”还象现代人。
Jungers also noted that the first Homo fossils predate A. sediba by 500, 000 years, while Homo ergaster had reached western Asia just 200, 000 years after A. Sediba’s known date.
荣格斯同时还指出第一个人属的化石比sediba早50万年，而人属匠人（Homoergaster；也称东非直立人）仅在sediba已知年代的20万年后就已经抵达了西亚。
All of which makes sediba more similar to modern humans than are other australopithecines—and more similar, even, than Homo habilis, until now seen as one of the earliest humans.
所有这些使得源泉种比其它南猿，甚至比能人更像现代人类，直到现在有人把源泉种视为最早的人类成员之一。
Meanwhile, Arizona State University paleoanthropologist William Kimbel argued that A. sediba should have been classified as Homo, though it may not have been a direct human ancestor.
同时，亚利桑那州立大学(Arizona State University)的古人类学家威廉·金贝尔(William Kimbel)主张，虽然sediba可能不是人类的一个直系祖先，但还是应当归为人属这一类，而非南方古猿。
Reported in April and known from two 1.9-million-year-old skeletons discovered in a South African cave, Australopithecus sediba offers a glimpse of a hazy time in our lineage's evolution.
从4月报道获悉，在一个南非洞穴中发现了190万年前的的骨骼，南方古猿sediba让我们依稀窥见到我们人类进化的朦胧历史。
With a small, advanced brain, long arms, long legs and an advanced pelvis, Australopithecus sediba is described as probably a transitional species between Australopithecus Africanus and Homo habilis.
有一个小小的突出的脑袋，长长的手臂和腿以及突出的骨盆，根据描述古猿sediba很有可能是古猿Africanus和能人之间的过渡性物种。
With a small, advanced brain, long arms, long legs and an advanced pelvis, Australopithecus sediba is described as probably a transitional species between Australopithecus Africanus and Homo habilis.
有一个小小的突出的脑袋，长长的手臂和腿以及突出的骨盆，根据描述古猿sediba很有可能是古猿Africanus和能人之间的过渡性物种。
