Dear Alphonso;-
     Use Gregorioscala. If someone slipped the extra "i" in, they did so by mistake. It serves no pronounciation purpose.
     I have no other reference to the other sub-genera mentioned. If Kuroda uses them---he's welcome to them. All shell names and acreditations are subject to opinion and revision. By doing just that, one becomes a temporary expert.
