Original text on this topic:
R. unicornis the fold immediately behind the neck does not show a continuous ridge to the other side of the animal whereas in sondaicus it does. There is little difference in height, sondaicus being a few inches smaller at the shoulder, the horn smaller and often extinct in the female.
