A. afarensis lived in Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Kenya for sure, maybe more locations in E. Africa as yet discovered. There is no evidence of A. afarensis outside of Africa. One of the most famous A. afarensis is Lucy found in Hadar Ethiopia, part of the greater Afar group (hence the name). Also the Laetoli footprints in Tanzania, some of the most important evidence of early bipedalism are thought to have been made by a pair of A. afarensis.

A. africanus lived in S. Africa.
