A recent report of

e^{+} e^{-} \to D \bar{D}

events by the BESIII collaboration suggests the presence of a structure

R

at 3900 MeV. We argue that this structure, called

G (3900)

in the past, is not in fact due to a new

c \bar{c}

resonance but rather naturally emerges due to a combination of interference between nearby resonances and the opening of the

D^{*} \bar{D}

channel. We further find that the appearance of this structure does not require suppression because of a radial node in the

ψ (4040)

wave function, although a node improves fit quality. The measured

e^{+} e^{-}

coupling of

ψ (4040)

is found to be substantially smaller than previously estimated. In addition, we report new corrections to the measured cross section

σ (e^{+} e^{-} \to D \bar{D})

at energies near

ψ (3770)
