'On account of the existence of the earlier name Enhydris (Merrem, 1820), applied to 

 another genus, Enhydra has been replaced by Latax Gloger (Nova Acta Phys.-Med. Acad. 

 Caesar. Leop.-Carol., vol. 13, pt. 2, p. 511, 1827). This is not in accordance with the provi- 

 sions of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, art. 36, with accompanying recom- 

 mendation, and Opinion 25 of the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature 

 (Smithsonian Inst. Spec. Publ. 1938, pp. 59-61, July 1910).
