Neri:
Thanks for the correction. My only excuse is that, in order to be
exact and thorough, I was listing all canon Slytherins according to
their page in the Lexicon:
http://www.hp-lexicon.org/hogwarts/houses/slytherin.html
and this is where I also got the error in spelling Rodolphus' name.
This is obviously a single error of the Lexicon, since in their Which
Wizard page Rodolphus indeed appears by his correct spelling.
