Page typo: illusive / elusive

From a description of acoustic profiling research` using GBIF mediated data

Allowing for non-invasive and cheap detection of illusive species, identifying animals—e.g birds and frogs—through sound is becoming increasingly popular, particularly in habitats where visual observation is difficult or even impossible.

If the intent is to describe the species as difficult to spot this should be "elusive". "Illusive" derived from illusion, i.e. not really there.
