With regard to the galaxy 2MASX J20183871+4041003 that was mentioned by Longo et al. (ATel #1492) in connection with a variable AGILE source, I note that this galaxy was first identified with the INTEGRAL source IGR J2018+4043 (=IGR J20187+4041) by Kennea et al. (ATel #788) and Bykov et al. (2006, ApJ, 649, L21) using the Swift XRT. (See also Ajello et al., ATel #1497). While these authors noted the proximity of the unidentified EGRET source 3EG J2020+4017, the galaxy is actually outside the EGRET error box.
