Ceratotherium (Greek: "horn" (keratos), "beast" (therion)) is a genus of the family Rhinocerotidae, consisting of a single extant species, the white rhinoceros, and its extinct relatives, Ceratotherium neumayri and Ceratotherium mauritanicum, of which Ceratotherium efficax is considered a synonym. Another species known as Ceratotherium praecox is now considered a member of the related Diceros.

  • 白犀屬(學名:Ceratotherium)是犀科、犀亚科下的一属,由19世纪英国動物學家约翰·爱德华·格雷在1868年以白犀(原名:Rhinoceros simus)為模式種建立,現僅存白犀一種,野生種群分佈於非洲南部和東部的草原及灌木丛。2010年澳大利亚學者(英文:Colin Groves)等人經研究指出,白犀現存的兩個亞種——北白犀(Ceratotherium simum cottoni)和(C. s. simum),分化時間已超過100萬年,二者存在明顯的形態和遺傳差異,故將這兩個亞種提升為獨立物种,但研究結果未得到學界的普遍認同。 除現生的白犀外,白犀屬還包括一些化石物種,並被視為現代白犀的祖先。產自希腊和土耳其晚中新世地層的(C. neumayri)為白犀屬已知最早出現的成員,然而中國學者和邱占祥指出該物種應歸於黑犀属(Diceros),若依此意見,則白犀屬最早的化石紀錄來自(C. mauritanicum),其化石發現於西北非的晚上新世至更新世地層。此外,產自东非上新世地層的 Ceratotherium efficax 現已被認為是毛里塔尼亞白犀的異名。 (zh)
