Catalogue of immature hominin fossils from the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa
<b>Conclusions:</b> This comprehensive catalogue of immature fossils provides a critical resource for investigating morphological variation, life history traits, and evolutionary adaptations across hominin genera. It underscores the significance of South African fossil collections in exploring developmental patterns and evolutionary pathways leading to the extended life cycle characteristic of <i>Homo sapiens</i>.
