Laurillard has been credited with the specific name rissoanus, but in searching authorities I find Desmarest in 1820 (Encycl. p. 519) seems first to have Latinized G. Cuvier's D. d. M. Risso thus. Other writers have used rissoi, rissonnus, rissii, &c. I prefer to retain the earlier name, especially as it is that in most frequent use.
