East African Wildlife Journal 15 (4): 337, fig. 1 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands Black Rhino The initial thermoregulatory response of the rhinoceros species was an increased CML. A skin sample was taken from the experimental area (right dorsal aspect of the last three ribs) of a black rhinoceros and the numerous, highly convoluted sweat glands which were found are shown in Fig. 1.   details Cave, A.J.E. 1966 The preputial glands of Ceratotherium. Mammalia 30 (1): 153-159, figs. 1-3 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands All Rhino Species Species other than C.simum. In Diceros bicornis, the form closest to Ceratotherium, preputial papillae comparable to those obtaining in Ceratotherium are not present. L?nnberg (1912) reported no such structures in his specimen of adult Diceros penis, nor could the writer detect any in the spiri...   details Cave, A.J.E. 1966 The preputial glands of Ceratotherium. Mammalia 30 (1): 153-159, figs. 1-3 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands White Rhino Ceratotherium simum preputial glands. Attention is here directed to the presence of certain hitherto undescribed and histologically peculiar glands which occur in the preputial skin of Ceratotherium and which constitute a most conspicuous external feature of the penile integument. Preputia...   details Alexander, A.; Player, I.C. 1965 A note on the nuchal hump of the square-lipped rhinoceros Ceratotherium simum simum (Burchell). Lammergeyer 3 (2): 5-9, pls. 1-2, fig. 1 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands White Rhino Ceratotherium simum. A final point in relation to the dermis is that sweat glands as described by Cave and Allbrook certainly occur here as well. They do not, however, have a uniform distribution, as can easily be ascertained by examining the sweat patterns on the body of a rhino which has just...   details Tremlett, J.G. 1964 Observations on the pathology of lesions associated with Stephanofilaria dinniki Round, 1964 from the black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis).

In the dermis, islands of serous-type (apocrine) sweat glands could be identified.   details Allbrook, D.B.; Harthoorn, A.M.; Luck, C.P.; Wright, P.G. 1958 Temperature regulation in the white rhinoceros. Journal of Physiology 143: 51P-52P Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands White Rhino Ceratotherium simum cottoni. The skin is well adapted for temperature regulation, having an epidermis about 1 mm thick, with a well-developed subjacent vascular bed. The dermis, about 2 cm or more thick, is dense, collagenous and relatively avascular, pierced at intervals by vessels to the epid...   details Cave, A.J.E.; Allbrook, D.B. 1958 Epidermal structures in a rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). Nature 182: 196-197 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands White Rhino Ceratotherium simum. Most unexpected, however, was the finding of large apocrine sweat glands, characterized by an abundance of relatively large, ectodermally developed myoepithelial cells, an anatomical arrangement clearly subserving the rapid and copious discharge of sweat. The obtrusively la...   details Cave, A.J.E. 1953 Richard Owen and the discovery of the parathyroid glands: vol. 2, pp. 217-222, figs. 1-3 In: Underwood, E.A.

Credit for the discovery of the parathyroid lands is generally accorded to Ivar Victor Sandstr?m (1852-1889), who, in 188o, when praelector in anatomy in the University of Uppsala, published the first syst...   details Pocock, R.I. 1912 The Zoological Society (The death of two rhinoceroses; measurements of Indian rhinoceroses; some characters of rhinoceroses; the King's collection of Indian animals). Field 119 (3082), 20 January 1912: 143, figs. 1-5 Location: Subject: Species: World Anatomy - Glands All Rhino Species On geographic grounds one would expect the Sumatran species to be more nearly related to the other Asiatic than to the African types. And this is the case. The better-known distinguishing points between the two categories of Asiatic species are supplied by the number of horns, the development of...   details Burne, R.H. 1905 On the viscera of an Indian rhinoceros.
