Rhinocerotidae and Chalicotheriidae (Perissodactyla, Tapiromorpha) [PDF]
ABSTRACT Here we describe mandibular, dental, and postcranial remains referable to Rhinocerotidae and Chalicotheriidae (Perissodactyla) originating from the vertebrate localities of Kucukcekmece East and Kucukcekmece West, in Thrace (European Turkey). The four rhinocerotids recognized comprise the early diverging Ronzotherium sp.
