Misspellings?

[edit]

I suspect that many names on the list may be mispellings. Notobrachiops may be a misspelling of the name Notobrachyops, Sinobrachiops of Sinobrachyops, Derwenti of Derwentia, Hyperkynodon of Hyperokynodon, Erythrobatcrachus of Erythrobatrachus, Anaschisma of Anaschima, Chromatobatrachus of Comatobatrachus, Chelyderpeton of Cheliderpeton, and Nannospongylus of Nannospondylus. Can anyone confirm this? There are no papers on prehistoric amphibians that I know of that even mention names spelled this way, and they are only included on lists of prehistoric amphibians on various websites that seem to be exact copies of the list on Wikipedia. Most of these misspellings are probably my fault as they were typos that I had made when I was adding to the list. If I am correct I will proceed to renaming the pages for these amphibians.
