Jose Moris Mercado-Palacios (Mercado) pleaded guilty to one count of being unlaw*394fully found in the United States after having previously been deported or removed, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. He viras sentenced to 57 months in prison.

Mercado appeals his conviction for the limited purpose of correcting the judgment under Fed.R.CrimP. 36, arguing that the judgment should reflect that he was convicted of “being found in” the United States and not of “[ijllegal [r]e-[e]ntry,” as listed in the judgment. He argues that “being found in” the United States and “illegal reentry” are distinct offenses.

Rule 36 authorizes this court to correct only clerical errors, which exist when “ ‘the court intended one thing but by merely clerical mistake or oversight did another.’ ” United States v. Steen, 55 F.3d 1022, 1025-26 n. 3 (5th Cir. 1995) (quoting Dura-Wood Treating Co. v. Century Forest Indus., Inc., 694 F.2d 112, 114 (5th Cir. 1982)). In the district court’s judgment, the “Nature of Offense” description, “[ijllegal [r]e-[e]n-try,” so closely tracks the § 1326 title, “[r]eentry of removed aliens,” that it bears no indicia of the district court having made a mistake or oversight. Rather, it appears that the district court intended the “Nature of Offense” to refer generally to the title of § 1326.

Such a method of reference to § 1326 is not uncommon. In fact, this court has often used the term “illegal reentry” in reference to violations of § 1326 generally. See, e.g., United States v. Gunera, 479 F.3d 373, 376 (5th Cir. 2007). It appears that the district court’s judgment uses the term “[ijllegal [r]e-[e]ntry” intentionally in reference to § 1326 generally; therefore, there is no clerical error. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
