Existing text needs to be revised - missing a word or two ... 'the second the two' - the Ruppert reference has a different year from what is listed later on the page

The second the two free-swimming larval forms in the asteroids, characterized by the appearance of three adhesive arms at the anterior end (Ruppert & Barnes, 2004; Stachowitsch, 1992).

plus is it Brachioloaria or Brachiolaria or are both valid? This raises the question should there be a line that references not just the plural/singular names but also synonyms?

Extras --> someday in the future would it be possible to include the term in a different language? - i expect that this is beyond the scope of this project but this option should be on an enhanced list.
