    While Corsula is often considered an error for insula1, consideration should be made of another possibility. Corsula is positioned first on the cosmographer's island list. The listing, which proceeds from the south to the north, would logically begin with the Scilly Isles. 
    If Cor- were considered intrusive2, the remaining sequence of  SULA (or SILLA) would have fit into the etymology of Scilly. Mona, the next entry, could have contributed  further to the name's corruption.
    PNRB pp. 457-9 presents a detailed discussion of the name.

1. It could be an assimilation to the name of the Umbrian town of Corsula.
2. A text divider followed by a mark resembling an apostrophe ( /' ) could have provided the initial Cor-.
