A thorough investigation is the only way to eliminate errors and doubts. I'm surprised that The Plant List had got the spelling wrong, maybe they haven't got around to updating it yet. However, the link is on the site which gives the true source of the name on the International Plant Names Index. That appears to be as good as it gets, until someone comes up with an earlier source for the same species which would trump that one. First in time takes priority.
