The rhinoceros appeared in late Miocene times and have continued to the present day as the one-horned rhinoceros of India and Java. Various two-horned rhinos appeared in late Cenozoic times. One of these survives as the modern two-horned Sumatran rhino. On a somewhat separate branch are the two horned rhinos of Africa.
