Here are some more mistrakes on the existing taxonomic web sites:
"The Animal Kingdom" (www.kheper.auz.com/gaia/biosphere/animal_kingdom.htm). Main title on the opening page :PHYLOGONY ( Evolutionary Relationships). A dangerous misprint : it can sound like Theogony or Cosmogony or in an easy metamorphosis might turn into "Philogony" a good name for anti-abortionism!
On Graham Davison's "Metazoan Diversity Home Page" , the mollusks have OSTHARADIA instead of Osphradia.. There are also Lochotrophozoans and Ecydysozoans there......
Unfortunately, the list is very long. Sloppy writing casts doubt also on the content itself ! Builders and owners of the pages should ask the help of a colleague in reading the proofs before going public.
