The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Because H. rudolfensis coexisted with several other hominins, it is debated what specimens can be confidently assigned to this species beyond the lectotype skull KNM-ER 1470 and other partial skull aspects.
- No bodily remains are definitively assigned to H. rudolfensis.
- Consequently, both its generic classification and validity are debated without any wide consensus, with some recommending the species to actually belong to the genus Australopithecus as A. rudolfensis or Kenyanthropus as K. rudolfensis, or that it is synonymous with the contemporaneous and anatomically similar H. habilis.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Homo rudolfensis article was read about 67,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 64: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
