contents <p><i>Phascolodon gidleyi</i> Simpson, 1925</p><p>(“ Amphilestidae ”, Mammalia), type species by monotypy, was named on the basis of a single specimen from Como Quarry 9, Morrison Formation (Kimmeridgian–Tithonian), Wyoming, USA. As the genus is preoccupied by <i>Phascolodon</i> Stein, 1859 (Ciliophora, Phyllopharyngea), Cifelli and Dykes (2001) proposed the substitute name, <i>Phascolotheridium</i> Cifelli and Dykes, 2001, to replace the junior synonym, <i>Phascolodon</i> Simpson, 1925. It has recently come to my attention, however, that another substitute name had been published (Kretzoi and Kretzoi 2000) some months previously. Hence, <i>Comodon</i> Kretzoi and Kretzoi, 2000 replaces <i>Phascolodon</i> Simpson, 1925; <i>Phascolotheridium</i> Cifelli and Dykes, 2001 is a junior synonym of <i>Comodon</i> Kretzoi and Kretzoi, 2000. The type and only species is thus properly cited as <i>Comodon gidleyi</i> (Simpson, 1925).</p>
