188 General Notes. 



NOTE ON AN ISOPOD NAME. 



In the Proceedings of the U. S. Nat. Museum, Vol. 42, 1912, pp. 173- 

 174, in a paper entitled "Description of a new isopod crustacean belong- 

 ing to the genus Livoneca from the Atlantic coast of Panama," the 

 specific name longistylis was given to the species described. Since 

 the publication of the paper, 1 found that Dana had previously used that 

 name for a species of Livoneca from South America, which is described 

 in U. S. Expl. Exp., Vol. 14, 1853, pp. 754-755. My species may, there- 

 fore, be named Livoneca tenuistylis.
