4 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. 73 



If his right be disputed, then, since there is no possible question of an error 

 of transcription, etc.. Boms Agassiz is a synonym of Boros Herbst. 



Boms Albers, it can hardly be doubted, is also a transliteration of Boros. 

 If a correct name, it is a homonym of Bonis Ag. If incorrect, it should be 

 written Boros and so becomes a homonym of Boros Herbst. Art. 36, Recom- 

 mendation, does not apply to this case. 



Therefore according to strict application of Art. 34, and Opinion 83, Bonis 

 Albers is to be rejected. 



The Secretary recommends that the Summary, as given above, be 

 adopted as the Opinion of the Commission. 



Opinion prepared by Bather, Stiles, and Bartsch. 



Opinion concurred in by fourteen (14) Commissioners: Apstein, 

 Bather, Cabrera, Chapman, Horvath, Ishikavv^a, Jordan (K.), Pelle- 

 grin, Richter, Silvestri, Stejneger, Stephenson, Stiles, Stone. 



Opinion dissented from by no Commissioner. 



Not voting, four (4) Commissioners : Bolivar, Handlirsch, Jordan 

 (D.S.), Warren. 



Commissioner Richter adds : 



Ich stimme der Opinion zu. 



Zur Discussion, Absatz 3, habe ich aber grundsatzlich zu bemerken : Nicht- 

 bcjolgung dues Ratschlags bci der Aufstcllung eines Naniens gibt kcin Recht, 

 den Nainen nachtraglich ini Sinnc dieses Ratschlags zu dndern. Herbst, 1797, 

 " should have written Bonis " ; wenn er aber Boros geschrieben hat, so hat 

 Agassiz, 1846, nicht das Recht, Boros in Bonis zu iindern.
