I should wear my reading glasses from now on, because I failed to notice....
Same goes for synonym: Xenocara macrophthalma. I'll correct that right away.

Changed both names to add the extra H, odd this one was missed as I cut and paste if also from a list from Amanda.

Just goes to show that it's easy to misspell and misread long words - the longer the word, the easier the brain goes into "I know what it says, so we don't need to read any more" when reading. Classic "missed typo" thing. I only noticed because fishbase didn't come up directly, but it's secondary search did find it (which happens automagically when it doesn't find in the first one).
