Hi, Jonathan: Well, the very most famous example of this that I am aware of (other than the Piltdown Hoax) was circa 1909, when Erwin Hinckley Barbour of the University of Nebraska published a deciduous pig M1/ as human, calling it a "Tertiary human". I don't have the exact reference but a little digging should bring it up.

I'm interested in non-human specimens mistaken for human, and also human misidentified as non-human.
