Abstract
THE explanation of the discrepancy between Prof. Allman's and my own citation of my article in NATURE, vol. xxii. p, 147, appears to be that Prof. Allman has unfortunately received a copy of NATURE differing from the majority of the issue of that date in the fact that it was printed off before the final corrections, sent to the office of NATURE on Wednesday, had been inserted. These corrections were made before the greater number of the issue was struck off, and I have only just ascertained, to my great surprise, that any of the unconnected copies had been circulated. The error as to the marginal canal was also present in the proof of my paper, marked “uncorrected proof, confidential,” which was circulated among the Fellows at the meeting of the Royal Society on June 17, but the error was corrected by me before the reading of the paper.
