Note: The Indian, or white, and the Javan rhinoceroses
(
Rhinoceros Indicus and
Rhinoceros Sondaicus) have
incisor and canine teeth, but only one horn, and the
very thick skin forms shieldlike folds. The two or
three African species belong to
Atelodus, and have
two horns, but lack the dermal folds, and the incisor
and canine teeth. The two Malay, or East Indian,
two-horned species belong to
Ceratohinus, in which
incisor and canine teeth are present. See
Borele, and
