Hominoidea (hominoid: those resembling man): All old-world apes
Hominidea (hominid: those akin to man): Great apes
Hominini (hominin: man-like): humans and chimps
Homo (man): humans and our closest cousins
The proposed subtribe homininan (very man-like) would exclude chimpanzees but include australopithecines.
The less-common hominineae (hominine: those very akin to man(?)) would sit just below the hominids and include gorillas, chimps, and folks while excluding orangutans.
