If I must endure these postings, let's at least get the spelling right
on some of the stuff.  This is a shame.

Just to correct a few of them:  Enneacanthus, Etheostoma, Elassoma,
Heterandria are the proper spellings for the genera.  Many of the
species are spelled wrong as well.

There are many more errors on spelling in this list, I just picked one
at random.  Also, when writing a scientific name, species is _NEVER_ in
capatal letters.  _Elassoma zonatum_ is the form it should be in, for
example.  Also, the "underscore" before and after the Genus and Species
denotes that the word is usually underlined (or italicized).
