What will be the name of Man's Successor?

I'm trying to determine what will be the name of the animal that man will evolve to.

Here's a Species List:

This list is in chronological order by genus.

Sahelanthropus
Sahelanthropus tchadensis

Orrorin
Orrorin tugenensis

Ardipithecus
Ardipithecus kadabba
Ardipithecus ramidus

Australopithecus
Australopithecus anamensis
Australopithecus afarensis
Australopithecus bahrelghazali
Australopithecus africanus
Australopithecus garhi

Paranthropus
Paranthropus aethiopicus
Paranthropus boisei
Paranthropus robustus

Kenyanthropus
Kenyanthropus platyops

Homo
Homo habilis
Homo rudolfensis
Homo ergaster
Homo georgicus
Homo erectus
Homo cepranensis
Homo antecessor
Homo heidelbergensis
Homo rhodesiensis
Homo neanderthalensis
Homo sapiens idaltu
Homo sapiens (Cro-magnon)
Homo sapiens sapiens
Homo floresiensis

What's next? Does anyone know what the logical extension of Homo is?

You need to flesh this out into at least a good paragraph or two. Introduce your topic, provide some background, then outline your position.
