Discovery of Ardipithecus kadabba (2004) Tim D. White (born August 24, 1950) is an American paleoanthropologist and Professor of Integrative Biology at the University of California, Berkeley . He is best known for leading the team which discovered Ardi , the type specimen of Ardipithecus ramidus , a 4.4 million-year-old likely human ancestor.
A. kadabba is considered to have been the direct ancestor of A. ramidus, making Ardipithecus a chronospecies. [7] The exact affinities of Ardipithecus have been debated. White, in 1994, considered A. ramidus to have been more closely related to humans than chimpanzees, though noting it to be the most ape-like fossil hominin to date. [1]

Two species are described in the literature: A. ramidus, which lived about 4.4 million years ago [32] during the early Pliocene, and A. kadabba, dated to approximately 5.6 million years ago [33] (late Miocene).
