In this short paper the author provides a counterexample to a conjecture of Erdős about non-3-colorable planar graphs with exactly 4 triangles. Specifically, Erdős had conjectured that any such graph must contain one of three specific graphs. The author disproves this conjecture by exhibiting a fourth such graph that does not contain the earlier three.
