Nesorhinus philippinensis is a Pleistocene-aged species of rhinoceros endemic to the Philippine islands. Fossil remains were found in modern day Metro Manila and Kalinga. It is estimated to have weighed around or less than 800kg, or at least a bit larger than the still-extant Sumatran rhinoceros. The species was first described by Gustav Heinrich Ralph von Koenigswald in 1956 based on fossil teeth that were excavated in Cagayan province of the Philippines in 1936. These bones were lost and he did not provide for a holotype.

It is estimated to have weighed around or less than 800kg, or at least a bit larger than the still-extant Sumatran rhinoceros. The species was first described by Gustav Heinrich Ralph von Koenigswald in 1956 based on fossil teeth that were excavated in Cagayan province of the Philippines in 1936.
