Paleoanthropology: What happened to the "Ape-Species" that evolved from apes, but not quite into the Homo-genus (Humans).

by Rafoir

Are there still surviving sub-species of what would later evolve into the Homo-genus or did they all go extinct? If so, when?

This has been bugging me for a while. Thanks in advance :)
