This paper synthesizes the Spanish data on Stephanorhinus hemitoechus. lt is widely distributed in middle and upper Pleistocene sites, whose geographic distribution is presented here. The best representation of the species corresponds to upper Pleistocene levels with Mousterian lithic industry. The morphological and the biometrical study of this species is carried out. Dental remains show a greater homogeneity than the postcranial material, which presents a great variation, mainly referred to the size. The Spanish S. hemitoechus seems to be smal1er sized than other European remains of the species. The Spanish reports of S. mercki, species frequently confused with S. hemitoechus, have been only confirmed in two sites, Cova Negra and Lezetxiki.
