LamAsTE, Bull. Soc. Zool. de France, VI, 223, 1881. 
Gundi is erroneously given as a generic name by Lataste, who refers it to Fischer. 
Following is a full statement of the question: ** En 1829 Fischer (Syn. Mamm., 
p. 346) mentionne l' Arctomys gundi avec une diagnose et une indication 
d'habitat qu'il emprunte aux auteurs dont il cite les noms: Rothman, Pallas, 
Pennant, Shaw. Dans cet article, ce dernier nom termine les indications 
synonymiques, et il est suivi de ces mots: ‘Gundi arabicus’ (le Gundi des 
arabes). C'est vraisemblablement ce passage qui, mal lu, a fait attribuer à 
Shaw un genre et une espéce qu'il n'a pas créés, et que personne n'a créés, que 
je sache." (LarmasrEe.) Shaw merely says (Gen. Zool., II, pt. 1, 123, 1801): 
** Tt is called by the Arabs Gundi.’’ This statement is translated by Fischer 
** Gundi Arabibus" (nec arabicus!), and is evidently intended to show that 
Gundi is a common and not a generic name. The animal was named Cteno- 
dactylus by Gray in 1830.
