Unfortunately, ending with -i or -ii is very garbled in subsequent
literature.  You pretty much have to check the original to be certain,
though some compilations are very reliable in most cases (e.g.,
Sherborn's Index Animalium, available online via the Smithsonian).  ae
versus oe is another big problem, made even worse by fonts that don't
distinguish them well, as Gary Rosenburg pointed out.
