It is correct. Homo is a genus of great apes. It emerged around 2.4 million years ago. And it does include modern humans (Homo Sapiens).

I'm not sure which part you're taking issue with?

That's right. Australopithecus and Homo are different genera.

> between apes and humans

Not sure what you're saying here. Humans and Australopithecines are both apes.
