639 So. 2d 602 (1994)
STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES (94-1).
No. 83748.

Supreme Court of Florida.
June 16, 1994.
PER CURIAM.
The Court recently approved an instruction on attempted first-degree felony murder for inclusion in the Florida Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases. Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases, 636 So. 2d 502 (Fla. 1994). The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions (Criminal) now recommends that a similar instruction be approved for attempted third-degree felony murder. The new instruction would be the same as the one on attempted first-degree felony murder except for the title and the elimination of the reference to burglary in the first Note to Judge. In order to be consistent, we hereby amend the title to the instruction on third-degree murder to read: FELONY MURDER  THIRD DEGREE. We approve for publication the new instruction which is set forth in the appendix to this opinion.
Further, it has come to our attention that paragraph 2 of the instructions on excusable homicide and excusable attempted homicide erroneously employ the term "accident or misfortune." Accordingly, the Court, on its own motion, amends paragraph 2 of those instructions to read "accident and misfortune."
The new instruction and the amendment shall be effective when this opinion becomes final.
It is so ordered.
GRIMES, C.J., OVERTON, SHAW, KOGAN and HARDING, JJ., and McDONALD, Senior Justice, concur.
