I giadly accede to Renter's claim for priority. Though the 

 paper in which his genus was described is attributed to 1903, 

 it was only reported in the ' Zoological Eecord ' as published in 

 1904, the year in which I described Gismunda, and I had not seen 

 it at the time I described tlie genus and species.
