"Pleodicyema delamarei" misspelling in CoL #99

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

It's spelled "delamarie" in ITIS, "delamarei" in CoL. I haven't checked, but my 
guess is CoL is wrong.

This is very weird, because CoL is populated from ITIS, isn't it?

The name in CoL does not comes from ITIS, but the UNESCO-IOC Register of Marine 
Organisms:
http://www.catalogueoflife.org/col/details/species/id/5208143

delamarei is also used in WoRMS, PESI and some wikipedia pages:

http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleodicyema_delamarei

Without further literature investigation I feel that ITIS is actually wrong, 
espacially as this seems to be a Mediterranean species. Well, ITIS mentions a 
literature about Japanese waters, tough one:
