Ranella

It had indeed escaped our attention that Ranella and Ranetta were equivalent alternate spellings in Garsault's 1764 work, and that a First Reviser decision was necessary to select the correct original spelling. We had erroneously attributed Ranella to Garsault's 1767 work. We fully agree with the interpretation of Dubois & Bour (2010) in this point, who selected Ranetta acting as First Revisers.
