Adinotherium is an extinct genus of mammal.
The 1,50 m (5 ft) long animal looked like a smaller version of its rhinoceros-like relative Toxodon. Its front legs were somewhat longer than those of its relatives, making its hip and shoulder height about equal. A small horn atop Adinotherium's skull may have played a role in the mating season.
