The question arises: What are these species to be called? It seems 
clear to me that Dujardin’s Euglypha tuberculata should stand, his 
error with regard to alveolata not invalidating the species which he de- 
scribed immediately before it. But should alveolata be dropped because 
it included two species, one of which was tuberculata? If it should, 
the adoption of Ehrenberg’s name acanthophora, which I now 
suggest, would avoid all uncertainty in the future.

Rectification. 
In the final make-up of the Fiat list of Mammalian names just pub- 
lished in the Anzeiger (Supra p. 285—6) the letter T has accidentally . 
been prefixed to the whole of the 16 names, whereas it should only have 
been appended to 11 of them. The other 5, namely Chiromys, Dicotyles, 
Echidna, Hippotragus and Rhytina, should not have had the T, as how- 
ever objectionable the “priority names” for these genera may be, they 
do not involve a transfer from one group to another, as is the case with 
the remaining 11.
