Ng, HH & M Kottelat, 2013. A name for the glass catfish (Teleostei: Siluridae) revisited. Zootaxa 3640: 299–300.
It turns out that the name may not be construed as available the first time around because we did not explicitly indicate that this is a new species (contravening Article 16.1 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature).

Re: Kryptopterus vitreolus revisited
What's the procedure in this case? Quickly publish an erratum using the same name?

Re: Kryptopterus vitreolus revisited
Annoying, but on the plus side, it's an extra publication ;)
