By David Starr Jordan and Edwin Chai'in Starks, 



Of Stanford Vniveri^iiy. 



In a recent paper on the Cottidaj or Sculpins of Japan,'' by the 

 present writers, a new genus, Sc/unidtia, was defined for a species of 

 sculpin, Schmidtia misck/'a, from near Misaki, Japan. As the name 

 Schmidt ia is already used in zooloo-y, we would substitute for it, as 

 the name of the genus of Cottidie^ the name Schmidt ina^ the species 

 being Schmidtina miscikia.
