No. Fleckvieh cattle, or those that are purebred (unlike the North American Simmental cattle), come in only gold, red, brown, tan, or yellow (or light blond) with the typical characteristic white markings.

The Simmental breed has an "open breeding" ruling in that any animal can be registered as Simmental (not Simmental-cross or SimGenetic) as long as there is 7/8 Simmental breeding in said animal, according to the Standards of Registration by the American Simmental Association. Simmental cattle can be near any colour besides the popular brown and red associated with the more heritage Simmental cattle, including black.
