Since the late 2000s, scientists from China have treated Paraceratherium grangeri as a distinct species from Paraceratherium fossils found in Central Asia (named Indricotherium by Aleksei Alekseeivich Borissiak in 1916), and the taxon P. huangheense described in 2017 further indicates that not all fossils of Paraceratherium found outside Pakistan belong to the same species.
