Abstract
IN a paper published in the Geological Magazine for September 1901 I described a large ungulate from the Eocene of the Fayûm, Egypt, under the name Badytherium grave. I now find that the name Bradytlierium had been employed a few months previously by G. Grandidier for a large extinct edentate from Madagascar (Bull. Mus. d'Hist. Nat., Paris, 1901, p. 54), and I therefore wish to propose the name Barytlierium for my genus.
