Type Locality: " Sumatra " ( Indonesia), later corrected to " Java " ( Indonesia).

Vernacular Names: Javan Rhinoceros.

Subspecies: :

Subspecies Rhinoceros sondaicus subsp. sondaicus Desmarest 1822

Subspecies Rhinoceros sondaicus subsp. annamiticus Heude 1892

Subspecies Rhinoceros sondaicus subsp. inermis Lesson 1838

Distribution: Formerly Bangladesh, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and probably S China through peninsular Malaya to Sumatra and Java. Survives in Ujung Kulon (W Java) and in Vietnam; perhaps in small areas of Burma, Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia.

Conservation: CITES – Appendix I; U.S. ESA – Endangered; IUCN – Critically Endangered.

Discussion: Revised by Groves (1967 c). The type was said to have been obtained by Diard and Duvaucel who were thought to have collected together only on Sumatra, not Java ( Sody, 1946) but Rookmaaker (1983) showed that Java is correctly the type locality.
