What's the distinction between the two species, out of curiosity?

There are three extant species of elephant. One of them is Loxodonta africana,
which could be translated "lo sa'orselde'i voi friko". The other species, L.
cyclotis, is just as African as L. africana, so "poi" or "noi" wouldn't pick
one of the two species. Is that the right usage of "voi"?

(Yes I know the proper way to designate a species is x2 of "xanto".)
