Thanks for fixing the others btw.. they're looking good. :) The Fly Agaric is the only one - Amanita not Aminida. Cool !

There are very good reasons why scientific names are created and need to be precise. Simple spelling mistakes in binomial taxonomic names might mean a whole different species or genus. In Project Noah, as in many biological databases, the scientific name field is critical to whether the record is 'identified' or not. I guess you can chose to either erroneously copy your professor's slide show - thus breeding confusion for the the rest of the world - or respectfully offer to correct the professor, gaining kudos, and be understood by everybody.

These are spellings from my professors PowerPoint from class.
