Aphelops (Greek: "smooth" (apheles), "face" (ops), in a reference of lacking a horn[1]) is an extinct genus of hornless rhinocerotids endemic to North America. It lived from the Middle Miocene to the early Pliocene, during which it was a common component of North American mammalian faunas along with Teleoceras.[2]
