In 1936 I established the new genus 
Heimerlia, based on Ceodes Brunoniana (Endl. ) 
Tete) a@ ( Heimerl: 
Sve bot. t ¢ » Pe/ 35) The genus was 
named in honour of Dr. Anton Heimerl, well- 
known authority on the Nyctaginiaceae, with 
his kind permission. Unfortunately Dr. 
* 
Heimerl, when he gave his consent, had forgotter 
that there already was a plant genus Heimerlia 
v. Hohnel, a fungus referred to the Mycetozoa ar 
dedicated"in honorem amicissimi professoris 
Antonii Heimerlii Vindobonensis" (Heimerlia 
hyalina v. Hohnel in Annales Mycologici I, 1903, 
pe391). 
Consequently, I had no reason to 
search the literature for a name Heimerlia. 
Some time ago I accidentally came across the 
name in A. & Ge Lister's Monograph of the 
Mycetozoa (2nd ed., 1911, p.170), where H. 
hyaline is supposed not to belong to the 
M 
Iycetozoa at all and suspected to be identical 
with another doubtful fungus, Endodromia vitre 
Berk. 1847. Im any case Heimerlia Skottso. 
a later homonym and has to he renamed. I 
call it Geimerliodendron, with the new combi- 
notion fH. orunonianum (indl.) Skottsb. 
I shall use this occasion to correct a mnis— 
print in my paper referred to above: on p.738, 
last line, the signs o and # have to change 
place.
