Answer:
Homo habilis-
The first known species of Homo appeared in East Africa between 2.5 and 2.8 million years ago, around the same time the last known australopithecines disappeared from the fossil record.
Homo erectus-
The human species called Homo erectus first shows up in the fossil record in East Africa by 1.9 million years ago. Apparently, Homo erectus lived side by side with Homo habilis for about half a million years. Its immediate ancestor is uncertain.
Homo sapiens-
Human beings (Homo sapiens) are anatomically similar and related to the great apes but are distinguished by a more highly developed brain and a resultant capacity for articulate speech and abstract reasoning.
