[In the event of Jdioglossa (§Metamorpha) miraculosa F. & B. and Idioglossa 
bigemma Wlsm. being found to be generically distinct, the question would naturally 
arise as to the application of Jdiostoma Wlsm. It should be noted, that although 
correction in the generic description of the South African Type of Jdioglossa bigemma 
Wlsm. was made from the Texan Type of Idiostoma americella Wlsm. (=miraculosa 
F. & B.), the observation that ‘‘ the original generic description must be amended in 
this particular, and the name, which is misleading, must be changed ” proves clearly 
that the neonym Jdiostoma Wlsm. (=Jdiogiossa Wism., olim, Type bigemma Wlsm.) 
was merely a suggested orthographical emendation—the two names are absolute 
synonyms with the common Type bigemma Wlsm. Drnt.]
