Synonym of D.b.bicornis. Opsiceros occidentalis Zukowsky, Arch. f. Naturgesch., 88: sect. A, pt. 7, p. 162, June 1922. Kaokoveld-Kunene region, Southwest Africa. Regarded by Shortridge (Mamm. South West Africa, 1: 412, 1934) as doubtfully distinguishable from the typical form, but if valid, presumably the same as Rhinoceros niger Schinz, which would thus antedate it.
