Valens III.11 (Pingree p.147; = III.14 Kroll/Riley, '14K;11P') also uses the day formula at night once the Moon has set: not adopted (Greenbaum, Culture and Cosmos 11, 2007, p.183).

Named disagreement not adopted: Ptolemy III.10 (Robbins pp.275–277) = III.11 (Hübner), Fortune Sun to Moon by day and night (Sun:ASC = Moon:Fortune); at night it falls on the reversing Spirit's degree (Rhetorius, CCAG VIII/4 p.121, via Greenbaum 2007 p.181).
