574 THE GENERA OF FISHES, PART IV 



Carcharodon Miiller & Henle, Zl ; orthotype C. rondeleti M. & H. = Squalus 

 CARCHARiAS L. According to McCulloch, the name Carcharodon is not used 

 by Smith. The earhest reference to Carcharodon is apparently that of 

 Muller & Henle (Mag. Nat. Hist. 2, H, 1838, Zl , January). Those authors 

 saw Smith's specimens {vide p. ZZ) and perhaps heard his paper read at the 

 Zoological Society in September. 1837. They therefore quoted the name as of 

 Smith. But Smith's paper was not published until February 13, 1838, he 

 having read Muller & Henle's paper "about a month previously, in which 

 Carcharodon appeared, and he evidently withdrew it with names he refers to 

 in his paper" (McCulloch, m lit., June 28, 1920).

 Strophidon McClelland, 187; logotype Mur.ena sathete Ham. 



1846.

 Vni, 63-64. 



Anastasio Cocco. 

 Phanerobranchus Cocco, 63; orthotype P. krohnii Cocco, an undetermined larva; 

 name preoccupied. 



1849. 

 417. SMITH (1849). Zoology of South Africa. 



Tilapia Smith, pi. 5; haplotype T. sparrmanni Smith. (Not Chromis nilotica as 

 stated by error on page 244.) The last-named species is referred by Regan 

 to Sarotherodon. 



1854. 

 No. 495, p. 256, should read : 



495. BRANDT & LOWE (1854). Description d'un nouveau genre de poisson de 

 la famille des Murenoides. Mem. Sav. Strang. St. Petersburg, VH, 169-176. 

 Johann Friedrich Brandt; Richard Thomas Lowe. 

 Belonopsis Brandt & Lowe, 174, etc. 



1855. 

 533. COSTA ("1855") should be omitted and transferred to 850 (1864). the 

 proper title being as follows : 



533A. COSTA (1855). (Cyrtorhyiichus.) Cos. Rendic. dell Accad. Pontaniana, 

 1855. 



Oronzio Gabriele Cost-a.. 



Cyrtorhynchus Costa ; orthotype C. leopoldi Costa, said to be a Myctophid, of un- 

 certain relations; figured by Costa, Fauna del regno di Napoli. 



1858. 

 607-612. COSTA (1858). (Uraleptus.) This reference should be canceled, ac- 

 cording to Mr. Henn. The genus Uraleptus Costa should appear under No. 

 350, Fauna del regno di Napoli (1846, p. 30). G.adella Lowe (1843) is still 

 earlier. 



612. COSTA (1858). Luspia Casotti, nuovo genere di pesci fossili delta calcarea 

 tenera leccese, Napoli. 



Oronzio Gabriele Costa.. 

 Luspia Costa; orthotype L. casotti Costa (fossil). An ally of Serranus Cuv.
