Where the monkey line meets a human-like line:
an alleged species related DIRECTLY to humans, apes and monkeys.

So this fossil might not be our great great great great ... great great relative but it might be a sister or niece or aunt or distant cousin of a direct ancestor of us. AND the same kind of 'nearly in the family line' could be said for apes AND for monkeys.
It is rare for a scientist to dig up a fossil and to say that it is a bit like an ape and a bit like a human. Here, we have something even rarer: something a bit like a human, a bit like an ape and a bit like a monkey.
