Like \citet{Ragan_2014}, Wang et al. (2015) search for large-scale filaments and establish their relationship to Galactic structure after the fact. Rather than searching for filaments elongated along the Galactic plane, Wang et al. (2015) search for the longest, coldest, and densest filaments (aspect ratio >>10) in the Hi-GAL images, within the longitude range of $15^\circ < l < 56^\circ$. Wang et al. (2015) highlight nine filaments as their most prominent, with one of the nine being Nessie. Only one of their filaments (BC\_11.13-0.12, the "snake") overlaps with our sample. Five other Wang et al. (2015) filaments fail one or more of our bone criteria. G24, G26, and G47 lie between 39-62 pc above the physical Galactic midplane (significantly outside our $\pm 20$ pc criteria), while G28 and G65 have aspect ratios of only around 19:1 and 38:1 (less than our 50:1 minimum aspect ratio criteria). G29 and G49 could be potential bone candidates, but without seeing p-v diagrams of the selected filaments (overlaid on log-spiral p-v fits to the Milky Way's arms) it is difficult to determine whether they would satisfy our criterion 4 (within 10 km/s of the global-log spiral fit to any Milky Way arm) and criterion 6 (no abrupt shifts in velocity, of more than 3 km/s per 10 pc, within extinction feature). Though Wang et al. (2014) do find velocity coherence along their filaments, they do say that, in certain clumps, the velocity gradients are much larger, creating the possibility that they might exceed our criterion 5. In future studies, we plan to follow-up on G29 and G49 to determine a) the precise number of bone criteria they satisfy and b) their association with a spiral arm in p-v space. In judging whether a filamentary cloud lies within an arm, or is highly inclined to it, the velocity of the associated gas offers the most relevant evidence. Since Wang et al. (2015) only show the correlation between filaments and spiral structure in X-Y space, we will reanalyze the most promising filaments (G29 and G49) in longitude-velocity space to more accurately determine their correlation with a spiral arm.   An in-depth analysis of all ten the other nine  bone candidates can be found in the appendix.
